NAIDOC Week is a vital time for celebrating and honouring the richness of the cultures, histories, and achievements of First Nations people. However, the true measure of leadership is shown in the actions taken beyond this week. Real commitment to reconciliation and inclusion is demonstrated through consistent, meaningful actions that drive positive change. It’s about integrating these values into everyday practices and decisions, ensuring that the respect and recognition of First Nations communities are woven into the fabric of our organisations and society. Leadership is about more than just words—it’s about taking concrete steps to support better education, employment, housing, and health outcomes for First Nations people. It’s about listening, learning, and actively working towards a more inclusive and equitable future. #Leadership #NAIDOCWeek #Reconciliation #FirstNations #InclusiveFuture #RAPConsultant #MeaningfulActions #EverydayCommitment #PositiveChange #DiversityAndInclusion [Image description: Quote from Dixie Crawford: "As a leader, it is not what you say during NAIDOC Week but what you do next week that tells us all who you really are."]

Well said Dixie. NAIDOC is just a week in the year but what must happen is all of us continue the work together to improving our relationship with the First Nations people. I want to ask you Dixie, the behaviour of some in Alice Springs at the moment is ruining it for the rest. Has Elders from the communities that are involved in the unrest able to help get control and clam back to the mob. Is there something that we are missing that brings this unrest. I want to be and have always been respectful of the people of the land but actions drown out the good, so for me as a normal Australian what is the answer or help that can be given? I want is to be as one. People of the past have nothing to do with Australia today and we just want harmony and respect to all (those who live here,come abroad or visit)

This really speaks to me as this is exactly how I feel…these commitments and actions have to be thought about and part of what we do as businesses 365 days a year, not just talked about during NAIDOC or Reconciliation Week.
