The one common theme when talking to colleagues across the Indo Pacific is the lack of leadership, purpose, and a common “national cause” that provides people with something to believe in and belong to. Scott McKenzie and I discuss some of the observations in #Australia and #NewZealand in particular. #leadership #pride #gowokegobroke
In today's episode, we explore the key challenges New Zealand and Australia face when it comes to national planning, infrastructure development, and political leadership. Drawing comparisons from international examples like Saudi Arabia's rapid infrastructure growth, we dive into how these countries push forward with long-term strategic vision despite hurdles. Scott McKenzie & Todd Crowley discuss the bureaucracy that slows down progress in Australia and New Zealand, particularly in major projects like the Olympics, and reflect on the role of leadership in overcoming these obstacles. Can decisive, strong leadership drive us forward, or are we stuck in a cycle of inefficiency? ⚠️ Challenges Discussed: - Slow decision-making processes in Australia and New Zealand. - High levels of bureaucracy, especially in infrastructure projects. - Lack of alignment in long-term government planning. - Challenges in education systems that impact future productivity. #Australia #NewZealand #Government #Leadership #Infrastructure #Politics #Bureaucracy #PublicPolicy #Olympics #Education #EconomicGrowth #Planning #Development #TransTasman #StrategicVision
