July 21, 2021 029 - LEADING THROUGH A STORM - Dr. Vivien Forner
What motivates a volunteer to risk their life braving storms, bushfires or the open ocean? How can we keep volunteers engaged in organisations like the SES, Rural Fire Service and Surf Lifesaving? And what can be done about the declining rates of volunteerism that is threatening the future of these iconic Australian organisations?
Dr. Vivien Forner is a Hungarian-born Australian who has been pondering these questions deeply. Through a PhD spanning both psychology and business, Vivien helped to identify the importance of self-determination theory in volunteer organisations. Working through challenges including a change in academic discipline, multi-tasking parenthood, and picking up the pieces after an industry collaborator withdrew, Vivien's persistence and determination has culminated in the formation of a professional consultancy business that is turning her research findings into practical training packages for the next generation of Australian volunteers.

Meanwhile, Vivien has also became an expert at communicating her findings outside of academia, winning her way through to the 2019 Asia-Pacific finals of the three minute thesis competition, an annual event that challenges PhD students across the globe to summarise their complex work in three minutes or less.
Join us for a study in leadership, determination and public speaking.

June 23, 2021 028 - SCIENCE IN THE BLOOD - Duncan Macinnis
As much as anybody can be, Duncan Macinnis was born a scientist.

With parents who both taught in the field, Duncan's childhood was spent among the exhibits of Sydney's Powerhouse and Australian Museums. Inspired by these experiences and encouraged by his family, Duncan continued his scientific education as far as a PhD in microbiology - studying yeasts under an industry linkage project with the beer maker Fosters.

Despite a clear love of science, the academic career path didn't call to Duncan. Instead, he spent his early career working sales roles for a number of biotechnology startups, attaining a level of business knowledge that would prove critical in his later career.

Now a director of the industry growth centre MTP Connect, Duncan Macinnis is charged with connecting researchers, businesses, investors and the government to help foster Australia's biotechnology ecosystem. And with a tenure that began alongside the onset of Covid-19, there could hardly be a more important time to be building a thriving biotechnology sector for Australia.
