Welcome to the NEXT podcast series - where we sit down with bold thinkers, innovators, and changemakers to explore what’s just around the corner and how business and community groups can prepare for it, together. 

In this first season Clem Johnson, KWM's Head of Social Impact and Shared Value and Dan Creasey, Director of Responsible Business at KWM go deep with thought leaders and changemakers on issues such as the importance of trust-based relationships with communities and future talent, loneliness, social isolation, and mental health in the workplace, and how these forces are shaping our lives and communities. How inequality is growing in Australia, with more people living below the poverty line, struggling with insecure work, rising costs, and limited access to essentials like education and healthcare, among many others. 

This podcast series will sit alongside our regular, twice annual publication on what’s coming NEXT for society, the environment, businesses and the communities in which they operate.
