    Diana Ryall was Managing Director at Apple Computer Australia from 1997 to 2001. While holding this position, the company was recognised by Hewitt Associates as ‘Employer of the Year’. Diana stepped down from that position at the end of 2001 to expand her involvement in those areas in which she is passionate: inspiring leadership, supportive workplace cultures and the success of women.

    Since leaving Apple, Diana founded the company “Xplore for Success” which offers services to organisations to support talented men and women to achieve personal success. The Xplore programs have challenged over 1500 women since 2002 in organisations such as ABN Amro, American Express, CBA, Deloitte and KPMG. Diana also offers presentations and consulting services in leadership, organisational culture and executive coaching.

    Since 2005, Diana has led the Chief Executive Women’s Talent Development Program. The program will be extended in 2007 to include Melbourne and has involved organisations such as AGL, ASX, Campbell Arnott’s, Deloitte, Freehills, IAG, Lion Nathan, Macquarie Bank and Woolworths.

    Since 2003 she has been part of the judging panel of the Australian Best Employers program run by Hewitt Associates. In 2006, she was on the panel for Deloitte’s Businesswomen of the year awards. Diana speaks at many events and strongly supports the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

    Chris Phillips is an Ambassador for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia. Chris is responsible for raising awareness of the need for men to be aware of their prostate and how to be tested for prostate cancer. He speaks to many groups around New South Wales.
