The Lord Mayor of Melbourne Sally Capp in conversation with The Centre for Optimism: Sally is what we would call a realistic and infectiously optimistic leader.
Being a Mayor in a city under curfew under what's called "stage 4 lockdown" and in a declared "state of disaster", is not easy.
In August 2020, Sally talked to us about her personal source of optimism and what makes her optimistic for Melbourne through the pandemic and beyond. Joining our COO Victor Perton on the panel for the opening questions were Janine Kirk AM, Chair of the Phoenix Trust; Former Head of The Princes's Charities in Australia; and, former Head of the Committee for Melbourne. Robert Masters, Chair, The Centre for Optimism.
