Our host, Kane Jackson is joined by

👨🏻‍🏫 🏳️‍🌈Professor Nick McGuigan, Accounting & Director of Equity, Diversity & Social Inclusion at Monash Business School, where he works as an Innovator, Instigator and Disruptor with a particular focus on accounting and accountability - especially when it comes to innovation and sustainability.

Today's guest is Marjorie Kelly, Distinguished Senior Fellow at The Democracy Collaborative and author of an incredible new book about how Wealth Supremacy is an emergency equal to climate. It's been labeled a must read, and for good reason. In this episode we speak about how solving climate for the future goes hand in hand with solving the finance emergency, talk about how collective ownership of companies is the way forward, and discuss the issues that so many of us in society are feeling today through the lens of an unprecedented cost of living crisis that is the product of a globa, emergency we need to address. This is a must listen for anyone who says they're committed to securing the sustainability of a future that, as it stands, few of us will be afford to live in even if we're lucky enough to make it there.

Marjorie's book is called Wealth Supremacy How the Extractive Economy and the Biased Rules of Capitalism Drive Today's Crises and can be purchased at https://www.amazon.com.au/Wealth-Supremacy-Extractive-Economy-Capitalism/dp/1523004770.
