Randall Pearce

Jon Bisset has found his calling. After nearly a decade of his leadership, the Community Broadcasting Association of Australia is a stronger organisation today. Jon has been an effective advocate for increased public funding and a unifying figure in the community broadcasting community.

Aron Hausler

It was an honor and pleasure to serve alongside Jon on the Board of Connecting Up over a 5+ year period. Jon's ability to set strategic vision, exercise pragmatic governance and to be across the details all contributed strongly to the value he bought to the organisation and the sector more broadly.
