Day 3 kicked off with Chris Richardson, Director of Access Economics, who shared not only his views on the global economic outlook but the economic conditions in the ACT. He remarked on the importance of China in Australia’s future and shared his views on stimulus packages among other economic issues.

Also on day 3, delegates were captivated by Independent Forensic Investigator Robin Napper’s experiences, particularly his thoughts on DNA technology and leadership. Robin drew upon cases he was involved in as part of the police force in the UK and his belief that leaders in policing need adapt to changes in technology in particular.
