Meet our speakers
Paul, Anna and Roland have chosen speakers with something important to say on what matters most to you. Presenters who know practice, not just politics. Everything you need in a short, sharp and informative format.
Roland Naufal
Roland has built (and at times threatened) his career by being outspoken about things that matter. He has over three decades of experience – from aged care CEO and Age Friendly Cities expert to the founder of DSC, Australia’s best known NDIS educators. This led him to ask the question: if radical honesty worked for Australia’s disability sector, then why not aged care, too? And here we are, folks.
Nicki Doyle
Nicki is a Partner in the Health, Ageing & Human Services Sector. She leads KPMG's Ageing sector. An experienced consultant, she works with clients within the ageing and community sectors, including Commonwealth and State Departments, providers and other organisations who work in the ageing and community care space. She focuses on policy, strategy and operations. She has an extensive understanding of the market in which providers operate and how to respond to remain competitive.
Paul Sadler
Few people have as much experience in the aged care sector as Paul. 37 years, to be exact. He’s been a national and state CEO of aged care industry associations, CEO of a major aged care provider, and influencer of ageing policy, disability and community care programs for both national and state governments. He actually enjoys staying on top of the detail and is always ready to share his wisdom and insights (which comes in kind of handy).
Stuart Hutcheon
Stuart is the Managing Partner at StewartBrown with 25+ years involvement in the aged care, community services and not-for-profit sector has led to him being recognised as one of the sector’s leading assurance and professional advisors. He has considerable experience assisting providers with their financial viability and sustainability, to ensure they maintain strong financial health, efficient systems and adhere to strong governance and legislative requirements.
Anna Millicer
Anna has spent the last 30 years in just about every area of the home care sector. With a foot firmly in both camps, she is great at aligning consumer and provider needs (no easy feat). Her relatable style for turning complex topics into consumer-friendly content have contributed to the success of her award-winning Home Care HQ newsletter.
Frances O’Reilly
Frances has spent the last 3 years at Annecto working closely with Corey from KPI Insights on developing a dashboard to help oversee long term organisational sustainability. With expertise in strategy, business performance and governance she is a big fan of what a Dashboard can deliver if it’s configured correctly. She is also the right Home Care sector leader in the right place at the right time to be hearing from in this area.
Siobhain Simpson
Siobhain is a Partner at StewartBrown and genuinely passionate (everyone claims that, but she really is) about her work with numbers and non-profits. It’s not hard to get her wound up about what needs to change from improving data collection to better financial systems. She has built a reputation for straight talk and challenging what we need to change.
Corey Jackson
Corey has over 20 years of healthcare technology-related experience. He tells us Microsoft Power BI can deliver a cohesive story about business performance with insights into setting the context, revealing hidden opportunities or risks with data mining, adding depth and credibility to insights with statistics and collecting, storing, and processing data efficiently and securely
Mathew Cagney
Mat knows his software and he knows Home Care. He is the Shiftcare CEO which has over 4,000 providers on its rostering, invoicing and care management platform. He has been a long term technology insider as a leader in both start-ups and ASX top 100 listed companies. Mat will offer his keen insights into the differences between reality and rhetoric in the software sales promises we keep hearing.

Lesley Nankivell
