🥋 What does it take to bring together 27 Aboriginal businesses, amplify truth-telling, and pass the baton to the next generation?
In this episode of Rolling Through Negotiations, Matthew sits down with Christine Ross a proud Arrernte and Kaytetye woman from Central Australia, long time resident of Boorloo (Perth), and the powerhouse behind some of the biggest Aboriginal conferences in the country.
With over 35 years of experience convening national events, Christine shares what it means to be a respected Aunty, why she won’t compromise on integrity, and the behind the scenes negotiation it takes to deliver the National NAIDOC Forum, an event that showcases the strength, diversity, and brilliance of First Nations businesses and voices.
This yarn dives deep into connection, community, and what’s possible when mob support mob and stories are shared from the heart.
