    Conversations with Liz McLaughlin, Horizon - Women's Day Edition

    In this special International Women’s Day episode of Conversations in Sustainability, host Dr Lisa Portolan turns the spotlight inward to speak with Horizon’s Founder, Liz McLaughlin. With more than 25 years in strategic communications and public relations, Liz has helped organisations navigate complexity, manage crises and lead through change across both the public and private sectors. In this conversation, she reflects on her career journey, how the PR industry has evolved for women, and the lessons she’s learned about leadership, resilience and building a business. Liz shares candid insights on the challenges she has faced, what it really means to be a woman in business today, and whether women can truly “have it all.” She also discusses what she calls her “third act” and why experience, perspective and purpose matter more than ever for women in leadership. Packed with practical advice, Liz offers guidance for the next generation of women entering the PR industry or starting their own ventures — from navigating obstacles to building a career with confidence and clarity. This episode also highlights three Australian organisations you can support this International Women’s Day, reminding us that when we share knowledge, time and resources, everyone benefits. 🎧 Listen now to hear Liz’s reflections on leadership, legacy and empowering the next generation of women in business.

    Conversations with Michael Bullock and Giuseppe Serpentino, Biesse

    In our latest episode, we’re joined by Michael Bullock and Giuseppe Serpentino from Biesse, one of Italy’s most iconic machinery manufacturers. At first glance, industrial machinery might not seem like a sustainability leader - but Biesse is quietly changing that. From circular design and modular repairability to hydrogen-powered innovation, their machines are built to last decades, reduce waste, and improve energy efficiency across wood, glass, stone, and metal processing worldwide. Michael Bullock, CEO of Australia and New Zealand, leads Biesse’s growth while embedding ESG and circular economy principles throughout the company. Giuseppe Serpentino, engineer and mechanic, brings hands-on expertise in implementing sustainable technologies on the factory floor, showing how design, heritage, and innovation come together to drive real-world impact. Listen in as they share insights on circular industrial design, hydrogen technology, and the future of sustainable manufacturing.
