概要

Australia is more than just a country. It's a land of stunning landscapes, diverse communities, and a deep-rooted spirit that unites us all. There’s much to be proud of and to celebrate. The harsh environment and extreme weather – bringing at times droughts, floods, bushfires – has shaped a resilience and tough-spirited attitude among its people across the vast continent.

This background has forged our Australian character and the way see ourselves and each other.

Co-hosts Skye and Al Charry seek to understand what it is about the spirit of the bush and how those living in the regional and rural areas of Australia develop relationships at home, at work, and at play. And they examine what organisations can do to foster equity and fairness in their own workplaces.

  • Ep4 Reflections on moral courage

    Ep4 Reflections on moral courage
    2023/11/21

    Al Charry takes us through his 27 years in the Australian Army, from infantry soldier to recruit-training instructor to leading soldiers in combat. Team cohesion and mateship are instilled from day one, where the needs of the team are placed ahead of the individual. After all, the blunt purpose behind the military’s physical and psychological training is to fight in a war zone, so camaraderie is crucial.

    Al discusses moral courage and its importance in an institution like the military, a hyper-masculine and hierarchical environment. Like any organisation, harassment and other discretions need to be called out early; and best handled in a delicate, non-confrontational manner. At the end of the day, it’s about treating individuals with the respect they deserve.

  • Ep3 Practical steps to change behaviour

    Ep3 Practical steps to change behaviour
    2023/11/07

    Skye Charry walks us through some of the revelations she documents from her book, Whispers From the Bush. Skye conducted an extensive study in rural Australia, which highlighted concerning statistics – very high incidences of sexual harassment in the workplace. Skye and Al Charry explore the cultural issues underlying the attitudes which ultimately lead to humiliation, intimidation and aggravation in the workplace.

    Although collectively we have a lot of work to do to transform that culture, the heartening conclusion is that it is not an insurmountable challenge. There are very real and practical steps organisations can make to support wellbeing and safety. It stems from recognising the fact that as individuals we strive to do the right thing, and so if people are cognisant of the damage and discomfort that words and actions can do to others, they’ll more likely to embrace change.

  • Ep2 Diversity is strength

    Ep2 Diversity is strength
    2023/10/24

    Dr Skye Charry is an associate professor in the field of sexual discrimination and gender equity. As part of her PhD, Skye travelled extensively across the country listening to a range of people in rural communities. She documented their stories in her book, Whispers From the Bush – The Workplace Sexual Harassment of Australian Rural Women.

    In this episode, Skye and Al Charry discuss the findings from her book and how it’s been influential in helping organisations in the bush to support their own people. It’s important, they say, to recognise how certain negative and discriminative behaviour is normalised in rural communities, and yet doesn’t reflect the equity that we as Australians value.
