Sometimes you just have to step up and say it like it is
Tonight I will watch the young people I work with step up organically and deliver one of the highlights of my career realisation aspirations
In 2012 I won the inaugural Bob Hawke Landcare Award
I remember the event
I remember the morning after
The first call was from the CEO of a dairy co-operative who told me they were going to sue me for information I had provided to Senate Estimates on Milk Price
The second call was from me to Australia’s second largest agricultural research and development cooperation who had decided the organisation who was building their cohort of confident communicators and trusted voices was at the bottom of the list of organisation they paid and it was perfectly acceptable that my family business would carry their debt.
Its tough out there.
My tips when you eventually find the people who genuinely want the best outcomes for the greater good.
Embrace them.
Work with them
Do something amazing together
I am finally in that space and I am sooooo grateful
