Manage episode 434901466 series 3559339
Today’s episode is a rewind of my converstion with Kylie Hargreaves, Chair of the Australian Alliance for Energy Productivity and Deputy Chair for Regional Development Australia.
Kylie is an experienced diplomat and is passionate about water, waste and energy. She has over 25 years experience in Federal and State Governments, including as Australia's Senior Trade & Investment Commissioner in the US, UK and Spain and as former Deputy Secretary for several portfolios (including resources and energy) in the New South Wales State Government, Australia.
In this episode Kylie gives us a glimpse into her early life traveling the world as the daughter of a diplomat, and later as a diplomat herself.
As a former Australian Trade Commissioner in Los Angeles, and as one of the founders of the G’day USA program, she transformed the way Australia conducted public policy in the US and around the world.
For Kylie, early lessons in self-reliance have led to a lifetime of financial discipline and ultimately the freedom to pursue career and personal goals.
