"Le défi des communicants aujourd'hui, c'est de changer les habitudes. Et quand on parvient à transmettre une vision, à susciter une émotion, tout devient possible."Dans cet épisode, je reçois Thomas Parouty, fondateur de l'agence MIEUX, une agence de communication spécialisée dans la RSE.Thomas est un pionnier. Son agence, il l'a lancée en 2009, bien avant que la RSE ne devienne centrale pour les entreprises.Avec Thomas, nous sommes revenus sur son parcours ambitieux : depuis ses débuts au moment où la "RSE" était quasi inexistante, à aujourd'hui où il accompagne ses clients dans la réflexion sur leur portefeuille produits, en passant par la réalisation de campagnes pour des géants comme Suez et Tetra Pak, des campagnes axées sur la pédagogie et l'émotion pour donner vie à des concepts comme l'économie circulaire.Avec Thomas, on a exploré de nombreuses thématiques commele lien entre RSE et rentabilité,la notion de courage dans les choix stratégiquesla manière d'éduquer consommateurs et collaborateurs à de nouvelles pratiquesla relation au tempsCe que j'apprécie particulièrement, c'est la façon dont Thomas rend tout cela tangible. Il illustre ses idées avec des exemples concrets et inspirants, comme les engagements de Bank Australia, les modèles durables de Decathlon, ou encore les initiatives circulaires de Lexmark. Il montre ainsi que la RSE, loin d'être un simple engagement moral, peut aussi devenir une source d'innovation, de rentabilité et de satisfaction.

Can you imagine loving your bank? Can you imagine your bank being a reflection of how you see yourself, in the same way we choose fashion brands to reflect parts of our identity? Well, perhaps if your bank is Bank Australia, you might not have to imagine too hard. From today's interview, this bank is one that I can easily imagine loving and identifying with. My guest today is Georgia Windrum, Manager Climate Action Strategy, Bank Australia. Georgia leads Bank Australia's work to reach their ambitious net zero by 2035 target. She has previously worked on climate strategy, policy and campaigns at Climateworks Centre, the Australian Conservation Foundation and the Australian Council of Trade Unions Our conversation uncovers the unusual way that Bank Australia conducts it's business, from being customer-owned, to not paying out bonuses or dividends and to serving their purpose – to inspire and empower our customers to use their money to create a world where people and the planet thrive. There's much we can learn from this Australian bank and one of their ambitions is that other financial institutions use and adopt their model. This collaborative mindset comes from the ambition they have to use business as a force for good. Interview highlights: Georgia shares her background journey from growing up with a strong connection to nature to her role at Bank Australia today, managing their climate action strategy She explains what it means to be a customer-owned bank, including what it means to have values-aligned customers as your shareholders Georgia highlights Bank Australia's four key impact pillars – climate action, affordable and accessible housing, nature and biodiversity and First Nations reconciliation – and some of the ways they support these areas She shares Bank Australia's 2035 Net Zero target and highlights some of the initiatives that have come from this target I ask Georgia to share an initiative that she's particularly passionate about and she highlights their pilot home electrification program in Victoria, getting their customers off gas We discuss the benefits and challenges of having customers who are so aligned and emotionally invested in the bank's activities Georgia shares what it means from an employee perspective to be part of a purpose-driven bank Connect with Bank Australia and Georgia Bank Australia website Georgia on Linkedin

This week Alex is away so Nick is let loose on the podcast! Nick chats to Christiaan Jordaan, CEO and founder of Sicona. Sound familiar? We interviewed Christiaan in back November 2021 in one of our all-time listener favourite episodes: "Australia's Role in the Battery Revolution". Since then Sicona has come a long way! Fresh off their recent $22m funding round for their battery technology we thought we'd cover the big issues since our previous chat: How the US Inflation Reduction Act has changed the game for climate startups (2:05) How Australia should respond (9:11) How the rise of Artificial Intelligence has affected climate startups like Sicona (12:29) Christiaan's HOTTEST TAKES on venture capital and funding climate solutions (15:38); and The inside scoop on Christiaan's recent funding round (21:28) In case you missed our last episode with Christiaan, here's a quick recap on Christiaan and his business (or you can have a a listen here) Sicona aims to revolutionise the battery world by improving battery efficiency with their unique anode materials, a technology that can be used with existing lithium ion batteries. Christiaan is also the co-founder of Novalith, a company that uses carbon dioxide as a reagent in extracting lithium. We have an episode featuring Novalith where we spoke to his Co-founder Steven Vassiloudis.

We chat to Doug Mcnamee from Jolt Charge, an Australian electric vehicle charging business that has raised $100million from Blackrock (the world's largest money manager). EV uptake in Australia is on a charge! When we recorded our first EV episode in 2021, they comprised less than 0.5% of total sales. In the first half of 2023 this number was up to 8%. So while EVs are just one part of decarbonising how we move, the signs are promising. We enjoyed chatting with Doug about the future of transportation, whether Australia is out of the EV doldrums and what makes Jolt Charge different.

We chat with Vince Allen from SunDrive, a Sydney-based startup on a mission to transform Australia into a solar manufacturing powerhouse. In 2021, SunDrive made headlines by developing the world's most efficient commercial-sized solar cell. Not only that - by swapping silver with copper as the conductive material their products could be lower cost too. With over $30 million in funding from high-profile investors like Blackbird, Mike Cannon-Brookes, Main Sequence Ventures, Malcolm Turnbull, and CEFC/Virescent Ventures, they're a force to be reckoned with. We loved this chat and especially Vince's love of solar, passion for Australia's great opportunity and also his toast analogy to explain how a solar panel actually works.

Do we have enough lithium for all the batteries we'll need for a low carbon future? What is the impact of lithium extraction on the planet? And can we do it in a more sustainable way? Nick and Alex chat with Steven Vassiloudis of Novalith, a Sydney startup that can extract lithium in a way that not only reduces emissions but also the amount of chemicals used in the process.

Is Samsara Eco Australia's most exciting climate startup? With enzymes that literally eat plastic, it's hard to disagree! Nick and Alex chat with Paul Riley of Samsara Eco, a Canberra based company that has raised ~$60 million to tackle one of the biggest problems of all: plastic recycling. It's a tangible, challenging and very current problem in Australia, so we loved diving into all the issues with Paul, understanding more about how the technology works and how Samsara Eco is positioned to be a global leader. ** This is our plastic DOUBLE HEADER and in two weeks time will have another hugely exciting Aussie startup tacking the problem in a very different way!

While there are a number of options to get to zero carbon transport, many of these solutions may take decades for mass adoption. This includes technologies like battery or hydrogen powered planes (which we covered on our episode with AMSL Aero) or even sustainable aviation fuel. But in the meantime, we have to pursue anything and everything that can increase the efficiency of aviation. This is where MicroTau's shark-skin comes in. In this episode we cover: The challenges of decarbonising long haul transport; How Henry came up with the idea; How the US Airforce got involved with the idea; Sharks on a plane you say?

Welcome to Part 2 of my mini series in partnership with , a customer-owned ethical bank and a certified B Corp, to make pregnancy finances less overwhelming. In today's episode we cover the cost of Fertility Treatment with Dr Violet Kieu, consultant gynaecologist specialising in fertility, reproductive endocrinology, and fertility preservation Planning a pregnancy is one thing, successfully conceiving is another. One in six Australian couples will seek fertility treatment, for both medical and/or social infertility. In this episode I chat to highly regarded fertility specialist, Dr Violet Kieu about infertility, recommended lifestyle changes and what you can expect from the intrauterine insemination (IUI) and invitro fertilisation (IVF) process. The financial costs are significant, especially if treatment is ongoing. However, it's really difficult to give exact figures considering every person's infertility experience is different, as are the investigations, tests and procedures that are recommended. If we're talking ballpark figures, you can expect to pay $1500 for IUI after a Medicare rebate and roughly $5500 for each round of IVF. There are also publicly-funded fertility clinics and while the waitlists are long (and often time is something you don't want to waste), they do make both IUI and IVF significantly more affordable. Consider this episode a thorough guide to your fertility treatment options.
Greenpeace Australia Pacific Senior Campaigner Violette Snow talks with Fleet News Group's podcast host Caroline Falls about the pro environmental group's inaugural fleet rankings, and a new report outlining the case for corporate fleets to transition to renewable energy powered electric vehicles. IKEA was named top green fleet in Australia by Greenpeace in mid March for its progress and commitment to electric cars, vans and trucks. Bank Australia was ranked second and Westpac third in a field of 30 big brand fleets analysed. Snow said the organisation devised the rankings to highlight commitments to cutting greenhouse gases. It also fits in with its campaigns to bolster use of renewable energy in Australia.

At the end of July, Jack River dropped an open letter calling for more Aussie music airplay at the Olympics. A slew of Aussie artists have backed calls by Jack River for Channel 7 to play Australian music during the network's coverage of the Olympics, as the country's artists continue to endure yet another wave of gig cancellations and postponements due to the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, restrictions and border closures. “How great would it be if you played all Australian music in your coverage of the Olympics? These are Australian moments, they deserve Australian music,” said Jack River. “And while we're here, how good would it be to hear Aussie music in Coles, Woolies, Aldi, in banks, on hold, in stores and on ads being shown to Australian for the next few months?” she added. “We need you more than ever. We wanna be your soundtrack.” River's call was met with support from artists like Lime Cordiale, Annie Hamilton, B Wise, Vera Blue, Cub Sport and Jaguar Jonze, who wrote, “HELL YES. Our domestic music quota is so low compared to other countries supporting their own artists.” Unveiled Thursday (Aug. 5), Our Soundtrack Our Stories is a cross-industry project which calls on corporations, media and “anyone willing to listen” to soundtrack Australian lives with homegrown music. The indie artist and entrepreneur's words didn't fall on deaf ears. Channel 7, Channel 9, Coles, 7-Eleven and Bank Australia listened and have taken action. Last week, River launched the Our Soundtrack Our Stories campaign, which invites the wider business community and beyond to discover, champion, share, and consume more local music, which, in short time, will generate essential streaming and sales royalties for struggling artists. The gameplan is a simple one. Play more Australian music, more of the time. A factsheet shared by the pool of partners recommends business owners play local music in their stores and business (and, of course, obtain the right license by visiting OneMusic), spin a radio station that champions local artists, and share the campaign social assets. To join the movement, artists are encouraged to work their social accounts, push the assets, tag businesses that should do more (and give a shout-out to the supporters), create and share themed playlists, and get creative. The industry's hardship is brought into sharp focus in a new report from I Lost My Gig, which found artists and professionals had lost $64 million in revenue lost since July 1, with almost the entire sum uninsurable. The real figure is likely significantly higher. To play a part in Our Soundtrack Our Stories, use the hashtag #OurSoundtrackOurStories on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter.

In this episode we hear from Fiona Armstrong, Executive Director of the Climate and Health Alliance. These legends exist to highlight the health impacts of climate change, believing that if the health sector leads on climate advocacy, then decision-makers and the public will act, because we the community care about health and trusts health voices. Earlier this year, The Climate and Health Alliance released a fascinating study titled “Australia in 2030” which presents narrative scenarios of 5 possible futures for our country. Fiona talks about those scenarios, as well as her work in climate and health advocacy, with Dumbo Feather contributor, Myke Bartlett. Thanks to Bank Australia for sponsoring this episode.

Full article published at https://www.get5.io/podcast/18-siobhan-mchale-culture-change-insider Siobhan McHale is an acclaimed culture transformation expert and global executive. She currently holds the title of Executive General Manager of People, Culture & Change at Dulux Group. She recently published her book, The Insider’s Guide to Culture Change, which walks readers through her four-step process to culture transformation. One of the ways she catalyses culture change in companies, is through role reframing. She explains how each of us wear many hats during our day (parent, spouse, sibling) and even take on many roles at work (boss, subordinate, peer), which requires shifts in our approaches and behaviour. She maintains that, in order to change the behaviours in your workplace, you don’t have to get people to change their personalities; you can reframe their role/s to shift their behaviour. What is company culture? Culture is the patterns of thinking & relating between the parts in the company, i.e. it’s at the collective level. She illustrates company culture as the dancer & the dance — the dancer is the behaviour, but the dance is the hidden patterns and rules of that behaviour. “Culture change is leader-led.” Culture has always been important, but has been misdefined in many parts as being about employee engagement only, yet it’s so much more. Every aspect of your business — design, manufacture, supply chain — so we have to redefine & examine culture from a commercial lens, not purely an employee lens. “Culture comes from strategy.” Timestamp notes 1.09 — About Siobhan 1.55 — Why are you an insider? 5.47 — Definition of Culture in the workplace, and where’s she’s seen culture change.

In Episode 33, “Never Too Late”, Blenheim Partners’ Gregory Robinson speaks to Judith Downes, Chair of Bank Australia and Non-Executive Director of Clean TeQ Holdings Ltd, ImpediMed Ltd and The Spinal Research Institute. She is also a member of the Global Alliance for Banking on Values Governing Board Forum. Judith previously held senior executive roles at Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd and Alumina Ltd.Judith shares with us her unique story from the classroom to the boardroom. Starting as a high school maths teacher, she made the courageous decision to embark on a new journey and, as a thirty-five-year-old, found herself competing with fresh university graduates in the corporate world. Judith’s determination to succeed in a new sector and her rising through the ranks allowed her to play a crucial role in the pioneering of flexible working arrangements for both men and women in the workforce. She provides us with surprising insights about the transition and qualities one must have to be considered for and to be able to contribute to a Board. Judith encourages us to question the prevailing executive remuneration structure and presents her perspective on the meaning of diversity.In a world of a heightened sense of social responsibility and conscious decision-making, Judith and Greg discuss the concept of clean money and how Bank Australia leads this movement. Judith explains how fintech developments and increasingly competitive rates are turning boutique banks into more attractive alternatives in a new era for banking. Furthermore, she talks about the potential of open banking, the constant threat of cyber-attacks on banks, and why cryptocurrency still has a long way to go.

Bank Australia is committed to positive social and environmental change. Owned by their customers they’re actively listening and actioning things that matter, including land regeneration, reconciliation, affordable housing, animal welfare, renewable energy, and conservation. They’re committed to ‘clean money’ and therefore got a hard stance against coal, nuclear weapons, gambling, tobacco, live animal export. Highlighted within this conversation is how little many of us know about what our money in the bank supports, and the huge opportunity for it to enable positive change and the future we want to see. https://onewildride.co/podcast/2020/29/fiona-nixon-bank-australia

Bronwyn Johnson see art as critical in helping us address, understand and prepare ourselves, and our communities, for the rigours of a changing climate.Bronwyn, as the executive director of the Melbourne-based Climarte, is ideally placed to marry the subtleties, and beauty and strength, of art to the emerging challenges of a changing climate.She is presently in the midst of the 2019 "Art+Climate=Change" biennial festival which formally ends on May 19 although, as Bronwyn points out, many exhibitions continue past that date.Climarte has many supporters with the principal partner being Bank Australia, which Bronwyn says is clearly the most generous and decent backer she has been involved with during her time in the not-for-profit arts sector.
In 2007, Kevin Rudd famously declared climate change to be “the great moral challenge of our generation” Nevertheless, successive Labor and Coalition governments have failed to act effectively towards action on climate change or mitigating its effects. Corruption, denial and delay have permeated our institutions and have contributed to the current political inertia that has produced both outrage and hopelessness, as well as profound alienation from our democratic system. But it doesn’t have to be this way... Individuals and groups both domestically and overseas are fighting to change the politics of climate change before it is too late. But how do we change climate politics when the power is not with grassroots activists and individual citizens? Who is standing in our way? What makes our democratic system amplify some political points of view and not others? Who has most access to the levers that change political outcomes? What can we do to change that? For a discussion on why so much has gone wrong with the politics of climate change, and where to look to successfully change how climate politics get heard, join us for this event on the 10th of April!

This month we head out of Dumbo Feather HQ and take you on an adventure to the 2016 Melbourne Writers Festival, when we parked our caravan up at Federation Square and welcomed writers in for intimate conversations with a small audience. First up is British poet and educator Anthony Anaxagorou, a man who thinks deeply about each word he uses and the importance of being vulnerable. Then, we hear from Neil Strauss, New York Times best-selling author of The Game—a book which lead him to some pretty big realisations about himself and what makes a healthy relationship. The interviews in this episode were conducted by Nathan Scolaro and Mele-Ane Havea. This episode was produced by Beth Gibson. Music by Dennis Liu. We would also like to thank our friends at the Melbourne Writers’ Festival. This podcast is sponsored by Bank Australia.
