Military careers provide leadership lessons early. Being a leader is part of a military person’s DNA; our mistakes and critical lessons learned in the heat of the moment help us to be better leaders for the next time. Those leadership lessons come from both the operational frontline and from leading people every day wherever we serve.
The Frontline to Boardroom podcast shares leadership lessons from those who have served in the military and then taken that experience to succeed in the corporate sector. It will be a safe space for inspiring conversations across ranks, services, gender, professional roles and creed; real people sharing their leadership lessons, stories and lived experiences; warts and all.
From leading men and women in harm's way, their hard-won leadership lessons on into their corporate careers. There’s no theory here, just raw conversations from genuinely inspiring and successful people.
Our guests will not always be household names, but their impact as a leader will be clear, and the conversations will explore the good, the bad and sometimes the ugly…
Get ready to be amazed because you're about to hear some of the most incredible success stories from the frontline and the boardroom.

018: Passionate Leadership with Dr Ellen Joan Nelson
What are the attributes of a passionate leader? And, more importantly, how can you become one? While there is no single answer to this question, there are certainly certain things that passionate leaders do differently than those who are not.
In this episode of Frontline to Boardroom, I chat with Dr Ellen Joan Nelson, a veteran of 10 year’s service in the Corps of Royal New Zealand Engineers, who after a short career inr logistics management and consultancy, found her passion for improving the well-being of women in the workplace. A PhD later Ellen is a sought after expert in the experiences of working parents in the corporate sector, identifying significant flaws with the current, archaic, construct of work.
Ellen shares her experiences in the military and the ground breaking work she is doing to improve social outcomes for families and for organisations.
