When Clarity Matters Most

Claire Campbell is one of Australia’s leading voices on transport safety, political risk, policy reform, and human behaviour — trusted by government, industry, and enterprise organisations when the stakes are high and the path forward is complex.

With more than 25 years of senior experience across government and industry, Claire brings rare, real-world insight into how decisions are actually made, how systems fail, and what it takes to create change that lasts.

She doesn’t deliver theory. She delivers clarity.

Why Claire

Today’s leaders are navigating:

Heightened public scrutiny
Rapid technological change
Complex regulatory environments
Increasing political and reputational risk

What they need isn’t more information. It’s better thinking.

Claire is known for her ability to:

Translate complex policy, safety, and regulatory systems into clear, actionable insight
Surface hidden political and operational risks before they escalate
Connect data, narrative, behaviour, and decision-making into strategies leaders can act on
Make complex systems feel human, relevant, and urgent

She is the advisor and speaker organisations bring in when getting it wrong isn’t an option.

Speaking topics

The Future of Transport Safety: Innovation, Regulation & Political Risk

Transport safety is no longer just a compliance issue — it’s a leadership, reputational, and strategic one.
In this keynote, Claire explores:
- Why traditional safety frameworks are no longer fit for purpose
- How innovation, regulation, and public expectation are colliding
- The political and reputational risks organisations don’t see coming
- What leaders must do now to future-proof their systems
Ideal for: Industry conferences, executive audiences, government and enterprise leaders
Policy Doesn’t Move People - Narrative Does

Data alone doesn’t change behaviour. People change when they understand why something matters.
Drawing on world-first reform experience, Claire shares:
- Why so many safety and policy initiatives fail despite strong evidence
- How narrative shapes behaviour, buy-in, and outcomes
- The role of storytelling in large-scale reform
- How leaders can create clarity instead of resistance
Ideal for: Leadership forums, policy audiences, change and transformation events
Seeing Around Corners: Identifying Risk Before It Becomes Reality

Most organisations don’t fail because they take risks. They fail because they don’t see them.
This keynote unpacks:
- The difference between risk-averse and risk-blind organisations
- Early warning signs leaders often miss
- How political, behavioural, and structural risks compound
- How to build systems that anticipate rather than react
Ideal for: Boards, executives, senior leadership teams

Claire’s Perspective

Claire’s authority is built on lived experience.

She has:

- Led world-first transport reform under intense public scrutiny

- Worked in senior government roles where decisions carry public, political, and human consequences

- Advised enterprise organisations navigating complex regulatory and safety risk

This combination of technical credibility and human insight makes her a powerful, memorable speaker — particularly in sectors where pressure and complexity are the norm.
