Leading with Empathy
In this heartfelt conversation, Richard Newman shares his incredible journey from a young man in his teens to becoming the CEO of Carers WA. He begins with a deeply personal story of his mother’s sudden diagnosis with multiple sclerosis when he was just 14.
Over the years, Richard’s career has taken him across various sectors, from working in homes for people with disabilities in the UK to supporting individuals with dementia and frail aged care in Australia. His path eventually led him back to the care sector, where he’s now leading Carers WA.
It’s a powerful reminder of the difference one person can make, not just through the work they do, but through the connections they create.
