\"\"Roslyn Holloway<\/a>, Advancement Manager at Mentone Girls’ Grammar School<\/a><\/h4>\n

What is your role at Mentone Girls? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I have been the Advancement Manager for five years.\u00a0 My role encompasses community engagement and fundraising.<\/p>\n

Motto or personal mantra? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Live life to the brim. Things can change in the blink of an eye!<\/p>\n

How has Educate Plus helped you in your career development<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

I came into my role with no experience in philanthropy. I wouldn\u2019t be where I am now without the incredible support of Educate Plus through mentorship, the Advanced Practitioner Course, conferences, webinars and networking. I\u2019m so grateful and hope to give back to Educate Plus over time for the immense amount of support, knowledge and expertise I\u2019ve gained.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s one thing you couldn\u2019t live without? <\/strong><\/p>\n

My heater.\u00a0 I loathe Melbourne winters!<\/p>\n

Who has had the biggest impact on your career thus far and why? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I worked at the University of Melbourne for 15 years. One of my fondest memories was reporting to the Manager of International Relations. She had a brilliant sense of humour, was a phenomenal mentor and taught me a lot about culture, protocol, diplomacy and public relations. She gave me autonomy, positions of responsibility, the opportunity to travel and so on.<\/p>\n

Favourite travel spot? <\/strong><\/p>\n

It would have to be spots<\/u>!\u00a0 I\u2019ve really enjoyed my time in countries like Myanmar, Cambodia, the Philippines and Japan.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the weirdest job you\u2019ve ever had?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

My position in a Japanese trading company in the mid-1990s was wonderful but culturally really different!<\/p>\n

How do you define success on the work front? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Achieving a phenomenal outcome through collaboration. I find colleague and stakeholder relations really fulfilling.<\/p>\n

Tell us two things most people don\u2019t know about you.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n

I LOVE lollies.\u00a0 I also enjoy art and crafts (sewing, cross stitch).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
