After five seasons of Game Changers, we’re just as inspired as the first time our series host Sarah Harris sat down on the couch with Australia’s leaders in their respective fields.
No matter what their area of expertise, there are so many rousing lessons to glean from the cream of the crop in business, arts and sports.
But exactly how to you define the meaning of a Game Changer?
Who better to ask than our latest inductees to this exclusive club – Naomi Simson, Maria Enna-Cocciolone, Janelle Gonzalez, Edit Whitelaw and Caroline Machado Campos.
“A Game Changer is someone who wants to see the world as a better place, and has confidence, says Naomi, entrepreneur, author and ‘Red Shark’ on the popular Ten series Shark Tank.
“It’s also someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously, but gets the job done.”

For Maria Enna-Cocciolone, founder and CEO of revolutionary skin-care range O Cosmedics, a Game Changer is someone with unshakable belief.
