A new housing proposal in Australia could threaten precious koala habitat according to hundreds of local residents who have banded together to oppose the plan. Spanning hundreds of hectares in the city of Ipswich, southwest of Brisbane, the Woogaroo Forest is where an estimated 200 koalas live. “You get all sorts of things, kookaburras wake you up, they're the first things to call out in the morning. And from time to time, we see the odd koala,” says local Keith McCosh. But some of this precious habitat could disappear because of a new development proposal. Stockland, the developer behind the project, intends to destroy native bushland to build 1,800 houses, a sports park, and a childcare center. The city's council approved the project in March but more than 200 residents have opposed it. ”People in Brookwater will wake up one morning and half of the hillside on the other side of the creek from there will be gone. That's just total vandalism,” says McCosh. It's estimated that the Ipswich population will double in the next 20 years and, with it, the need for more housing. “We have a lot of homelessness. So, all three levels of government need to balance those things to make sure that we get a great outcome for the community,” says Ipswich City Mayor Teresa Harding. The developer is now waiting for the Federal Government to give its approval and it says its environmental approvals are good. But conservationists do not agree. “Absolutely, we are concerned that in the rush to build housing, we're not protecting these important remnant forests in southeast Queensland. We also know that we can build the houses we need and not destroy this habitat,” says Queensland Conservation Council Dave Copeman. David Harris has lived in the area for more than a decade. Enraged by the decision, Mr. Harris penned a letter to naturalist Sir David Attenborough, inviting him to visit the forest on his next Australian tour. “What I would want to do is to get him up into this area, and stand where I'm standing now,” concludes Harris.

It sounds like he is quite pleased that Stockland made some early tough decisions on its retail portfolio and that it finds itself with limited office exposure. We get a sneak preview of some of the key elements of Stockland's refreshed sustainability strategy and get a better understanding of Tarun's focus on Return on Invested Capital (ROIC).

On this latest episode of How to Build a Better World, our managing editor Tina Perinotto talks to Mathew Nelson – the first Oceania chief sustainability officer at EY – about what's getting big Fortune 500 companies ticking on the climate question.For someone at the big end of town, leading the sustainability team at a company that's 300,000 strong globally, he's remarkably down to earth and happy to share practical insights into the big questions around our transition to low or zero carbon and what's getting in the way.Clients are larger businesses – ASX200 listed, NZ 50 listed or globally, fortune 500s – all big household names like BHP, Santos, Origin Energy, Mirvac, Stockland, and CSL. That larger reach – coupled with the fact he's been at the company for 20 years – means he's able to see the broader trends in the ESG and climate space.Produced by: Rose Mary Petrass, Poppy JohnstonThe Fifth Estate website: www.thefifthestate.com.auTwitter: @FifthEstateAUFacebook: www.facebook.com/thefifthestateAu LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/the-fifth-estate Support The Fifth Estate: thefifthestate.com.au/support-us Sign up to the newsletter: https://thefifthestate.com.au/subscribe
It is an honour to be sharing a conversation with Fiona Jefferies today who has created a highly successful all-women agency in a man's world. Fiona is the founder of Diva Works, which designs and delivers sales office fit-outs for blue-chip property clients including Stockland and Lendlease. Fiona has long been fascinated by the power of smart design, spending most of her pre-teen years designing the perfect Barbie dream house and arm wrestling her parents, sister and pet dachshund into attending art exhibitions she staged in her bedroom. Since launching Diva Works in 2001 from her dining room table with a $5,000 loan, Fiona and her team have delivered over 1000 sales offices which are the ultimate in first impressions. She creates environments that win customers and sell out developments sooner. Fiona is a self proclaimed music snob who worships at the church of rock and is a truly inspirational woman. I know you'll get a lot out of what Fiona has to share with you today. In this episode, Fiona and I talk about a number of topics, including her impressive journey in the construction industry, the biggest challenges she has faced both in life and business, the importance of relationships, and her secret to success. Fiona talks about taking action every day, even if you don't want to, why business owners need to get over themselves to rely on their team, and the importance of having personal practices in place to maintain balance in life. Fiona opens up about her very personal struggle during a time when she hit rock bottom. Overworked and overwhelmed, Fiona wanted to end her life and she shares how focusing on just doing one thing was the key to helping her climb out of the pit of despair. Each step is meaningful, no matter how small and Fiona shares her story to help others who might be in the same isolated and lonely place she once lived. Fiona's journey, both personal and professional, is such an inspiration and she is certainly a woman who is making it count. LINKS: Content warning - this conversation touches on suicide.

If there was one thing you think society should talk more about, what would it be?“How do you keep going when you've lost hope?” **Content warning - this episode touches on self-harm and suicide. If you are suffering or triggered by the themes of this podcast, please contact Lifeline on 13 11 14____________________________________________________________________Fiona Jefferies is the founder of Diva Works: an agency which designs and delivers sales offices for blue-chip property clients including Stockland and Lendlease. Since launching the business in 2001 from her dining table and a $5000 loan, Fiona and her team have delivered over 1000 sales offices - being the ultimate in first impressions. Despite being an incredibly successful business woman who has survived the pandemic when many in her industry have not, we don't touch on any of this today. Fiona wanted to come talk to me about something completely different. She's an advocate for mental health and she wants to share how her life changed dramatically only a few years ago after she hit the pits of despair. But it's not what happened to her and how she got there - Fiona wants to talk about the important part that many stories miss - the part of how she got out of that pit. It's a deep and emotional conversation that took me by surprise at times. I hope you enjoy this episode with the lovely Fiona Jefferies.

I love connecting with women who have global ambition and when others try and place them in a box they know better than to accept that fate. Fiona Jefferies is the founder of Australia's only all-women agency which created over 1000 sales office designs for blue-chip property clients including Stockland and Lendlease. She is known as the woman who creates environments that win customers delivering multi-million dollar sales for developments. She started her business 21 years ago on her dining room table with $5,000 and wanted to find her own path. In her words "you just don't want to rely on past successes, past glories" to build a business based on passion and delivery - you want to focus on "building relationships with people". We talk about: 1) Creating a a multi-million dollar business working in a male dominated world. 2) Being a business woman can be tough. The leadership skills Fiona learnt to consistently deliver growth for long term clients who became valued partnerships. 3) Her choice to only employ females in your business. 4) A life-changing struggle she had along the highway of life while building her business that she kept hidden for fear of judgement from others. 5) How it can be lonely at the top of your game with no one to share it with and how she translated that challenge into a possibility. 5) Honouring yourself is the greatest gift in life. It also allows your to understand your purpose when life comes 360 - what this means for Diva Works.

Does extending parental leave entitlements present a greater cost to the Australian economy or a benefit? The answer from economists and gender equality groups seem to agree, it is beneficial for all. Both socially and economically. These benefits extend to unpaid work at home. This does make sense when you listen to economist Jessica Mizrahi, Director at Accenture Australia and Vice President of the Economic Society of NSW and Mary Wooldridge, Director of the Workplace Gender Equality Agency. We also hear from Hugh Sinclair, a senior finance manager with property group Stockland, who took his full parental leave entitlement when his second child was born. He compares the experience and the benefits from when he took two weeks leave and twenty weeks leave.

The world has changed so much for all of us in the last two years and many women are opting out of the workforce into business ownership.. In the past 2 years the option of self employment has become even more attractive, because the opportunities of working remotely over an internet connection successfully provides a lot of flexibility. However, at the end of the day, each of us defines success and our reasons for achieving it differently. For some it's about having flexibility for the time to be with your family, working different hours of the day. Others just like the idea of working remotely, and making more money or making less and having less stress in life. So what does it actually take to be a successful mompreneur? My guest today Ciara Stockland is a born entrepreneur. From selling rocks to the neighbors at five years old to successfully opening two retail stores within two years and merging them together into a franchise, creating a marketing wholesale box subscription for boutique retailers and most recently launching the “Boutique Workshop” a coaching program for retailers.

Henry McDonald interviews Gavin Tonnet of utecture about city-changing urban renewal projects and transformational virtual pre-construction technology.Who is Gavin Tonnet?Gavin is a recognised expert and leader in the property space having created and led businesses for Mirvac, Leighton, Stockland and Japanese giant, Sekisui House.

Some of those that really changed and shaped city fabric and culture include:Sydney Olympic Village (Newington) SydneyWalsh Bay Redevelopment SydneyPerth City Link PerthGreen Square SydneyJacksons Landing SydneyLiverpool Civic Place SydneyWhat is utecture?He's now turned his attention to utecture which is carving out a new category in building technology that uses digitisation, visualisation and data to lower costs for builders and consumers and drive climate impact.After being introduced to the team behind the utecture technology, Gavin spent the better part of the year travelling around the world trying to poke holes in it.Instead, he realised that there were no holes to poke and he joined the team because he believed it is the next big thing with ramifications not only for the commercial health of the building industry, the well-being of the house-buying public, but also our shared environmental future.utecture is carving out a new construction technology category called Virtual Pre-Construction. Virtual Pre-Construction requires digital twinning technology to deliver on four distinct pillars: Design, Real-time Pricing; Visualisation and Management.Existing construction design platforms share some of utecture's features superficially, but compared to utecture they are basically only cosmetic tools. They use CAD design window-dressing, but fail to address the significant pain points that have held back the construction industry for years.Pete The Builder talks aboutThe Tool RevolutionPete talks to Steve Randall about tools and how they have evolved since his early days working in construction. As always, Pete injects plenty of knowledge with his unique sense of humour.Discover more about this and other episodes on the Constructive Voices website.

The data is in! Employing and promoting women makes a company more productive and more profitable, so why aren't all businesses doing more of that? In this episode we brief you on a brand-new report that makes the unequivocal business case for gender equality in Australia's top companies. While women make up half of the workforce there are far fewer women in leadership positions than men. Our guests are Libby Lyons (Director of the Workplace Gender Equality Agency) and Karen Lonergan (Head of People and Culture at property development company Stockland). In today's headlines: $250m rescue package for the arts World heading for 10 million Covid-19 cases as Australia battles its own outbreak Finally confirmation on how to pronounce Arnott's Nice biscuits In today's Briefing we ask: If more gender balanced leadership means higher profits why aren't more companies doing this?
