About Australia: A Lighthouse in the Global Storm

Australia is often called the "lucky country," a large, mineral rich land mass with a relatively small population, advanced infrastructure, a stable government and a well functioning society. By nearly every measure, it is one of the world's most successful countries. But as Australia: A Lighthouse in the Global Storm argues, that advantage must be persistently earned, today and in the decades ahead, in the face of constant business disruption and increasing geopolitical instability. The book is aimed at Australia's business leaders and addresses four transformational themes key to the country's stability and growth: leadership at a time of moral confusion, culture versus AI, achieving structural productivity gains, and redesigning global supply chains for resilience. It then examines seven of Australia's most important industry sectors and the role these themes will play in their development. In short, this is a manifesto setting out the crucial actions and directions for Australia's business leaders to follow, to ensure their organizations continue to thrive and that Australia maintains its special advantages on the world stage.
