This week I speak to Dan Anderson, Director and CEO of the Lachlan Macquarie Institute. LMI trains men and women for wise leadership in politics and culture through internship programs and conferences. Dan is very well connected to a wide variety of thinkers and decision makers and it was the perfect opportunity for me to ask some spicy questions around some topics that often be fairly polarising.

In this conversation, we talk about temptations and risks with political engagement in Australia, we touch on his PhD that explored forgiveness, and delve into some conversation around what responsible engagement with indigenous communities might look like.
