I didn't learn leadership from a textbook. I learned it from country people who showed up, helped, and never left anyone behind. Where I grew up, there was a code: you look after your mates, you carry your weight, and you don't wait to be asked. Bush to Boardroom Leadership takes those lessons from the country and brings them into schools, workplaces, and communities everywhere.© 2026 Timothy Arnold Economics Leadership Management & Leadership

    From the Bush to the Boardroom with Andrew Dalgleish

    In the very first episode of Bush to Boardroom, Tim Arnold sits down with Andrew Dalgleish to explore how lessons learned on the land can shape leadership in schools, communities and beyond.

    Growing up on a farm near Wickliffe, Andrew shares stories of drought, community spirit, resilience and hard work, and how those experiences continue to influence his leadership as President of the Victorian Principals Association.

    Together, Tim and Andrew unpack powerful bush-to-boardroom analogies including the importance of community, navigating through the fog, planning for the long term, and Andrew's "onion" model of leadership. It's a conversation about staying grounded, leading with purpose, and never forgetting where you came from.

    A must-listen for educators, leaders, and anyone who believes the best leadership lessons are often learned far from the boardroom.
