Holly Ransom
2014 G20 Youth Summit Chair, speaker, consultant and coach
Holly was handpicked by Rio Tinto CEO Sam Walsh, at the age of 21 to support him in creating effective change through the organisation. She was also handpicked by Kevin Rudd and Tony Abbott to work on the World Y 20 and B20 conferences in Australia in July and September 2014 and was a 2013 finalist for the Young Australian of the Year. The Financial Review named her one of the most 100 Most Influential Women in Australia. Holly exudes energy and is uplifting to be around. When she speaks, people listen whether young or old, experienced or at the start of their careers. Holly was on ABC’s Q&A with many people commenting that she’s a future Prime Minister. Holly’s presentations are outstanding and cover areas such as Effective Change, Intergenerational Leadership, Organisational Inrapreneurship, Strategic Communication, Community Engagement and Stakeholder Management. Not a bad CV for a lady who hasn’t even reached her mid 20’s!
Holly Ransom has never been ordinary.
Starting with a belief that great leadership and human capacity coupled with big thinking means anything is possible, Holly doesn’t dream or even think small. Nor has she been afraid to tackle the big issues or the reasons why they haven’t been solved yet – in fact ‘why?’ is the question you’ll hear her ask most frequently.
As a challenge strategist with core services of speaking, consulting and coaching, Holly employs an anti-silo mentality and has the ability to imagine a picture of the globe with its problems, hotspots, and troubles and consider how human skill and capital can not just be used to its fullest but how the talent, capacity and capability of people across communities and countries can join to help solve these challenges.
That’s what she does.
Holly has a BA (Economics) and a Law degree and currently runs HRE, a consulting and leadership development company where she is CEO – Chief Enthusiasm Officer.
She recently completed a six month contract to launch Australia’s largest youth oriented non-profit, the Foundation for Young Australians, in Western Australia. Now residing in Melbourne, Holly is a regular op-ed contributor to Australian newspapers and serves as a regular guest on ABC and other AM radio stations.
As a challenge strategist, Holly employs big-picture thinking to take a global perspective to the most crucial challenges facing leadership teams today and to consider how the talent, capacity and capability of people can help solve these challenges.
In the speaking arena, Holly is known for her ability not just to present brilliantly on innovation, leadership development, change management, and on engaging and retaining across the generational spread in the workplace, but also for her encyclopaedic and highly current knowledge of business and management practices, which she is able to convert to digestible and meaningful information for her audiences.
