My guest in this episode is Richard Boele. Richard is the Chief Purpose Officer for KPMG Australia and a Partner at KPMG Banarra, a team within KPMG that focuses on Human Rights and Social Impact. 

Richard is internationally sought after for his cutting-edge human rights, social impact and purpose insights, high-level facilitation and problem-solving skills and for his ability to inspire meaningful action by Boards and their CEOs across industries and the globe. In his more recent Chief Purpose Officer role he shares what he’s learnt from being KPMG Australia's inaugural CPO.

Some of the highlights of our conversation include a formative experience with Chief Justice Michael Kirby, the teachers that taught Richard how NOT to lead, the satisfaction that comes with putting the right leader in place to continue what you've built, answering the question "What exactly does a Chief Purpose Officer do?", and the impact of KPMG Banarra as a for-profit business in the human rights and social impact space.
