  • Episode 7: April 14, 2022 - Oleksandra Matviichuk
    2022/04/19

    Democracy activist and human rights activist, Oleksandra Matviichuk joins "Ten (10) Minutes in Defense of Democracies" from Kyiv.  We discuss her efforts prior to Russia's invasion in 2014 to strengthen the democratic institutions in Ukraine.  She is now spending her time, at great risk, to build a case against Russia for war crimes.

    A fascinating discussion with someone on the front lines of democracy in Ukraine.  Thank you, Ms. Matviichuk.

  • Episode 6: The Honorable Gerry Brownlee
    2021/12/19
    Gerry Brownlee has served as a Senior Cabinet Minister most noticeably for his work as the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Minister soon after a devastating 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck Christchurch on September 4, 2010.

    His role expanded following 22 February 2011 when a 6.3 magnitude quake hit the city, killing 185 people and resulting in widespread residential and commercial property destruction. The earthquakes, and subsequent rebuild of New Zealand's second-largest city, are the country's costliest event.

    Gerry Brownlee has represented New Zealand as the Minister of Foreign Affairs and as Minister of Defence.

    We discussed the long-standing friendship and partnership between our two countries;  Afghanistan;  challenges facing sister democracies in the Pacific;  the rise of China and how we can move forward together.

    New Zealand is a fascinating country with a strong streak of independence, yet they are always at America's side.  True friends.

    Australia's former Ambassador to the United States Joe Hockey joins Ready, Set, Lead! Podcast.  We discussed his early impressions of the United States, his time as Ambassador,  Bondi Partners,  instability in the Indo-Pacific, American leadership around the world, and the deep friendship between the U.S. and Australia.


    About Ambassador Joe Hockey

    Before co-founding Bondi Partners, the Honourable Joe Hockey served as Australia’s Ambassador to the United States of America, taking up his posting in Washington in January 2016. Notably, Mr. Hockey was responsible for Australia’s relationship with the US during the final year of President Obama’s tenure and the first three years of President Trump’s term. As Ambassador, Mr. Hockey emphasized the importance of a free and fair trade and investment partnership between the US and Australia, while promoting innovative infrastructure investment throughout the US.

    At Bondi Partners, Mr. Hockey spearheads the firm’s strategic direction in both the United States and Australia.

    Previously, as the elected Treasurer of Australia, Mr. Hockey was responsible for all aspects of the Australian economy. With a reputation as a reformer, Mr. Hockey helped shape the modern financial system in Australia and had a major hand in the formation of industry policy, from tourism and hospitality to health and welfare.

    In 2014, Mr. Hockey chaired the highly successful G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors meetings. He initiated major infrastructure initiatives ranging from the implementation of asset recycling financing to the creation of the G20 Infrastructure Hub.

    Mr. Hockey has had a long and distinguished career in public service. He first entered Parliament in 1996 as the Member for North Sydney and spent more than seventeen years on the front bench. Over the course of his parliamentary career, Mr. Hockey served as a Minister in a number of different portfolios including Financial Services, Small Business and Tourism, Human Services, and Employment and Workplace Relations. 

    Previously, Mr. Hockey served as a banking and finance lawyer with a major Australian law firm. He graduated from the University of Sydney with Bachelor's degree in Arts and Law.

    Mr. Hockey is married to Ms. Melissa Babbage, a company director, and former investment banker. They have three young children Xavier, Adelaide, and Ignatius.
