On today’s show, we have Adrian Tembel, CEO of Thomson Geer and chair of the South Australian Productivity Commission.
He's back for round two, and again, he makes no bones about the SA economy and what we need to do to turn things around.
Adrian is challenging the economic policy consensus in South Australia and we wanted to give him the opportunity to set out his thinking, why he thinks we have an economic problem, why he thinks our policies aren't working, and what he thinks is the best way forward.
🎙 In this new episode, Adrian pulls no punches talking about:
🎯 The three main weaknesses facing the SA economy
🎯 Why SA has continuously lagged behind other states and why it's time to reject old excuses
🎯 Our debt levels and calls for a bipartisan approach to sustainable debt levels
🎯 Interventionist industry policy and why the macro data shows it's not working
🎯 Why he believes government shouldn't build precincts like Lot 14, Tonsley
🎯 His ideas for the future - it's not all doom and gloom!
Adrian is optimistic that with a few key changes, we can turn it around and he shares his ideas in today’s episode.
If you do business in SA or care about the future of SA, this refreshing episode is a must-listen.
