The Board of Therapy Focus is delighted to announce the appointment of our new CEO, Alison Kelly.

Alison is an experienced clinician and leader with a rich and diverse range of experiences across health, disability and primary care, education and community, in metropolitan, rural, remote and international settings. Most recently she has been the CEO of Directions Disability Support Services in WA where she led a significant and successful transformation of the organisation in readiness for the NDIS.

The Board were impressed by Alison’s relationship-based leadership style, her understanding of the issues for organisations operating in new markets with new business models, her knowledge of critical success factors in employee engagement and her focus on ensuring people receiving services are partners in their therapy journey.

We are delighted that Alison will be joining us early in the new financial year to lead Therapy Focus into the next phase of our extraordinary journey.

 

Fiona Payne,

Board Chair
