She connects with employees at all levels of the business and conveys sensitive and difficult concepts in a way that instills empathy, acceptance and respect amongst employees. If knowledge, respect, energy and awareness are the keys to success, I have only optimistic predictions for Lin’s future.’

‘Lin is truly a leader in her field. A highly-driven professional who delivers superior results in everything she does. Lin inspires others with her energy and enthusiasm to strive for the best. Lin is a proactive and savvy professional with exceptional business acumen and passion for all things community. Through my work with Lin in the diversity space, I have witnessed exceptional behaviors and an absolute drive for measurable results.

Head of Culture Capability and Change, The Star Entertainment Group
‘Lin is a true leader; even more so given her role sits outside our organisation. Lin’s leadership is not based on her position or expertise, although both of these alone would qualify her, it comes from her passion, humanity and inspirational behaviours. Lin has raised the bar for all of our D&I partners and, generally, they don’t meet the high standards she has set. She is knowledgeable, respectful, appropriately challenging, engaging and a joy with which to work. I value our relationship highly.’
