As Australia’s first Indigenous State Treasurer, Ben Wyatt AO delivered one of the State’s biggest economic turnarounds—shifting WA from deep deficit to surplus in two years. After a 16-year career in Parliament, Ben transitioned to the corporate sector in 2021 and now sits on the boards of Rio Tinto, Woodside Energy, and the West Coast Eagles.

In episode six of Leadership Matters, Ben reveals if leaders don't explain why their organisations matter, then they shouldn’t be surprised when others claim they don’t. Plus, the three questions every business leader should be asking to keep their organisation relevant to the communities, states and nations that benefit from the products they produce.
