Let's Work Together Towards a More United Australia As we mark Reconciliation Week 2024, KDHS want to take a moment to acknowledge the rich and diverse cultural heritage of Australia's Indigenous peoples. This week is a time for us to come together, reflect on our shared history, and work towards a more united and equitable future. As we celebrate the achievements and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, we are reminded of the importance of reconciliation in our personal and professional lives. It's not just about acknowledging the past, but also about building a better future for all Australians. In the workplace, reconciliation is not just an abstract concept - it's a tangible reality that requires effort, commitment, and understanding. It's about creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued, respected, and heard. So, what can we do to promote reconciliation in our daily lives? Here are a few ideas: 1. Educate ourselves: Take the time to learn about Indigenous Australian culture, history, and experiences. This will help you better understand the complexities of reconciliation and how you can contribute to it. 2. Actively Listen: Listen to the voices of Indigenous Australians, and amplify their stories and perspectives. This will help to break down barriers and create a more inclusive dialogue. 3. Be Supportive:??Support your colleagues and friends who are working towards reconciliation. Be an ally in their journey, and use your platform to amplify their message. 4. Take Action: Get involved in initiatives that promote reconciliation, such as cultural events, workshops, and training programs. Your actions can make a real difference in creating a more united Australia. As we mark Reconciliation Week 2024, we want to encourage my fellow LinkedIn users to join me in this important journey. Let's work together to build a brighter future for all Australians, one where every individual has the opportunity to thrive. **Hashtags:** #ReconciliationWeek #ReconciliationAustralia #IndigenousAustralia #Inclusion #Diversity

Our third and final reflection from discussions had at The Network Forum Australasia event in March, CEO Fraser Wikner briefly considers the necessary changing face of our workforce. Read on... Keeping relevant in an era of change. ? The ability to attract younger people into our industry is something we need to work harder at, and this has been a recurrent theme at TNFs over the last 12 months. ? According to EY, Generation Z, namely people born between 1997 and 2012, are expected to make up 27% of the labour market by 2025, yet this cohort does not seem particularly enthralled about the idea of working in financial services. ? Ask yourselves this question: do your children want to work in a Bank? ? This is something we need to work on….and quickly. ? Given that Generation Z is digitally native, a good starting point would be for our industry to eschew manual processes and embrace innovative technologies. ? We have made a concerted effort to bring younger people – primarily Generation Z – into client-facing roles within our own organisation, giving them visibility, responsibility, and autonomy. Not only did we increase headcount by 50% in 2023, but one third of our workforce is now under the age of 30, and this young talent is having a hugely positive impact on our business.
