Last month, we asked you to save the date for CPD's second annual John Menadue Oration, which will be delivered by Professor Mariana Mazzucato on 11 December at Carriageworks in Sydney. Mariana advises policymakers around the world on innovation-led inclusive and sustainable growth. Mariana's new book, The Value of Everything, encourages us to rethink where wealth comes from and who creates it. Following her address, Mariana will be joined in conversation by David Thodey AO, who is chairing the independent review of the Australian Public Service. The conversation will be moderated by Laura Tingle, ABC 7:30's political correspondent. 

 RSVP NOW
