Australian Resources and Energy Group AREEA is continuing to put the spotlight on the industry’s high achievers, highlighting the brilliant achievements and initiatives of employers in the sector.
In this episode of AREEA’s Resource People Podcast, hear the inspirational story of Byron Davis – the winner of the Future Leader category in the 2021 AREEA Industry Awards.
As a role model and mentor, you’ll hear the reasons for his drive and passion to improving outcomes for Indigenous Australians and how he advocates through his role as a Deputy Project Manager at Ventia, and his important contribution to the company’s dedicated Indigenous Employment team (TRECCA).
In this very candid and raw conversation, Byron describes his unique and very personable approach which is moving the dial when it comes to Indigenous Australian engagement with non-Indigenous people.
