Susan Templeman

A former political reporter in the Canberra Press Gallery with 2UE and a foreign correspondent, Susan set up her own media and presentation training business nearly 20 years ago.

In that time she has created a collaborative network of all-female trainers who she mentors as they run their own small businesses.

While working with corporate and government clients, Susan has provided low-fee training to a wide range of NGOs and charities in NSW and the NT.
She has been on the Board of NSW Family Planning for five years, and was appointed as the NSW representative on the Sexual Health and Family Planning Australia (SHAFPA) board in 2009.

Susan is 47 years old. She’s lived with her husband Ron in the Blue Mountains since 1991, raised two children there, Phoebe (18) and Harry (16), and developed deep roots in her community.
