An invitation to the Aboriginal Staff Forum

We’re kicking off the first of our two-part series of the Aboriginal Staff Forum for 2021 with Yarn Up: Connecting Transport’s Mob. This event is a great opportunity for our Aboriginal colleagues to reconnect and have a yarn with mob.

This event will focus on two things you’ve told us were important – your career and your wellbeing.

  • LinkedIn’s David Brophy and Transport’s Deputy Executive Director Reid Johnson will lead the conversation on why personal branding is important for everyone and get you started to making your career one of a kind.
  • Proud Wiradjuri and Wolgalu man Joe Williams will guide us on how we can support each other and be comfortable talking about our mental health.
  • The Today Show entertainment reporter, Brooke Boney, will share her story on how she has established herself as a successful journalist and where she plans to go in the future.

Registrations are open to all Aboriginal people to attend the event in person or join the conversation virtually.

More events to come

Look out for an invitation to a second Aboriginal Staff forum event, to be held later this year. The new format aims to provide more accessibility for Aboriginal colleagues, an additional opportunity to connect each year and keep current on what’s happening across Transport.
