Culture is often the difference between a business that grows and a business that grows well.
In this episode of Shooting the Breese, powered by AS White Global, Dan sits down with Jane Betts, Chief People and Reputation Officer at Aussie Broadband, to explore leadership, culture, trust and transformation inside fast-growing organisations. Jane reflects on her career journey from New Zealand banking to senior people and transformation roles across some of Australia’s biggest brands, sharing how early experiences in training, operations and culture shaped the way she leads today.
Jane discusses the importance of leaders being true culture carriers, especially as businesses scale across locations, teams and international workforces. She explains why culture cannot be left to chance, why values must remain non-negotiable, and how businesses can better integrate offshore teams into the broader organisation.
The conversation also explores Aussie Broadband’s growth story, its reputation for trust, and how the company is navigating technology, AI and customer experience without losing the human connection that customers value. Jane also opens up about her personal routines, including cold-water swimming, live music, and her “one goal, four adventures, twelve family moments” approach to living deliberately.
For leaders, people managers and business owners, this episode offers a thoughtful look at what it really takes to scale culture, protect reputation and build a company people genuinely love.
