Chief Executive
(Australia New Zealand)

Keren leads Innovation Unit Australia New Zealand. Keren focuses on our strategy and impact in the Asia Pacific region and our education work globally. She currently works domestically with the Department of Education in Western Australia redesigning learning and schooling, Parkerville Children and Youth Care redesigning models of out of home care and the Department of Communities as part of their ambitious agenda to change outcomes for women and children experiencing family and domestic violence. Keren also leads our work with the Bermudian Government, developing new models of learning and schooling and leading the transformation of the system across Bermuda.

Keren is deeply committed to supporting people and communities to really thrive, beginning with their early education and care and continuing with their learning and wellbeing throughout their lives. To achieve this Keren works with communities, organisations, foundations and whole systems and sectors to create fundamental change in ‘the way things are done’. By maintaining a focus on both the lives of the people involved and the learning experience of leaders and indeed all professionals who work to make a difference, Keren’s work creates the conditions in which real change can happen at scale.

Prior to joining Innovation Unit, Keren spent five years working on improving and innovating teaching and leadership throughout Australia as General Manager of the Australian Institute of Teaching and School Leadership.
