Join Business Hunter for Business in Focus as we examine how organisations can build capability, challenge assumptions and strengthen accessibility across the way they work.

The discussion will be grounded in lived experience and practical application, with insights from Disability Consulting (DisCo) and Castle Personnel Services.

There is a lot of talk about workforce transition in the Hunter these days and where the jobs will be in the future as we gradually shift to a different economic mix that is less reliant on coal mining.

Tourism, defence, health, education and renewable energy are all touted as flagship industries for the region’s future… and will all undoubtedly play an important role in our “new economy”, says Business Hunter CEO Bob Hawes.
