Description
Kyle Leong wants more mob talking about money and making money!  The Koko-bera man from the small Aboriginal community of Kowanyama was born and raised on Turrabal/Jaggera land and now lives on Giabal/Jarowair land with his 3 children and his wife.  Kyle is also the Senior Manager for Retail Banking Services (RBS) Indigenous Engagement for Commonwealth Bank where he is responsible for the recruitment and retention of Indigenous employees and has recently launched a pilot program that gives mob the knowledge and skills to take control of their finances.  If someone knows a thing or two about hiring mob and financial literacy, it’s this fulla! This week we sat down and had a yarn with Kyle about the steps businesses can take to ensure they’re doing the right kind of work when engaging with First Nations people. We also talk about how central financial literacy is to changing intergenerational outcomes for all Indigenous people.
