I’ve served on many boards over decades. Of all the boards I’ve been on, Liza is right up there as one of the most exceptional directors I’ve had the privilege of working alongside. Thoughtful, analytical, excellent communicator, always has the interests of the company centre of mind, broad experience in health and health governance, knows community and knows the kind of decisions required to optimize board outcomes. I’ve learnt significantly and am a more effective director because of this.
I cannot speak highly enough of Liza Houghton’s overall work ethic and commitment to whatever project(s) she is engaged in. Her contributions to the Red Lily Health Board (a NT Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation) as a consultant and as an Independent Director are strong examples of her dedication, flexibility, and ability to work through complex tasks. She does this with seemingly never-ending patience and true collaborative practice.
I’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with Liza in an organisation where she served as a board director, and I can confidently say she is a standout expert in board governance, strategic planning and health leadership. Her deep knowledge and genuine passion for her work are evident in everything she does, and she always adds tremendous value to the organisations and people she supports.
What really sets Liza apart is her commitment to community-driven health outcomes, particularly projects related to transitioning to community control. Her ability to create spaces where community voices are genuinely heard and integrated into the design process is inspiring. She is a true advocate for community control and delivers outcomes that are both practical and respectful of local needs.
Liza is a leader who combines vision, expertise and heart. Any organisation would be fortunate to have her on board, and I can’t recommend her highly enough.
Liza is a great operator bringing strategic oversight and governance to the organisation.
She is diligent, focussed and takes the time to understand presenting issues, providing wise counsel to both her colleagues and members of the organisation.
It is a pleasure to work alongside Liza.
