Ep. 88 - Navigating the Voice Discussion With Your Board (with guests Thomas Mayo & Jessica Bulger)
Listen now
Description
In a special episode of the podcast, we take a look at how to navigate the 'Voice to Parliament' Referendum in your boardroom. For our non-Australian listeners, this won't mean much unless you keep up to date with First Nations affairs globally.  In this webinar (converted to podcast), Paul was joined by author, Uluru Statement from the Heart signatory and Yes23 Spokesperson, Thomas Mayo, and CEO of the Australian Indigenous Governance Insitute, Jessica Bulger.  They explored this crucial topic, delving into the significance of acknowledging First Nations communities and how (and why) boards can play a role. Thomas explores the historical struggle for regocognition, whilst Jessica provides an important context and perspective on the principles of effective Indigenous governance. You'll finally hear a panel discussion featuring Paul, Jessica, Thomas and Future Directors' Head of Programs Aisling Blackmore, talking about how boards can engage, listen, and respond to society and social issues.  More from Thomas:  Website: https://www.thomasmayo.com.au/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-mayo-70774378/ More from Jessica: AIGI Website: https://aigi.org.au/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessica-bulger-3993925b/ More from Paul:  Website: https://futuredirectors.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/futurepaulsmith/ More from Aisling:  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/acblackmore/
