Courtney Petersen is finding it hard to leave Shine Lawyers behind.
USUALLY once a chief executive resigns they are shown the door immediately. Not so Courtney Petersen, who handed in her notice as boss of Shine Lawyers way back in December but is still toiling away at the Brisbane law shop.
Shine says that Petersen is working out her six-month notice as part of the terms of her contract and “continues to be a valuable contributor to the firm.”
That means the former Telstra and Aurizon executive will be at Shine until June.
Petersen confirmed the unusual arrangement to your diarist yesterday and says she is doing “project work” on a separate floor to the main executive team.
Petersen’s resignation capped a troubled year for Shine as profit was cut in half amid rising competition.
