19. Martin Stark: Courage for authentic inclusion and diversity

In this episode I speak with Martin Stark who lives in Sydney and works as a senior IT Strategic Procurement Leader. Martin is a Courage Champion, Inclusion Practitioner and is passionate about Diversity, Social Justice and Fairness. Martin is an advocate of health and fitness and was diagnosed with Addison’s disease in 2006 shortly after surviving having a tracheotomy and being placed in an induced coma. Martin is the Founder of the World Gay Boxing Championships and LGBTQI inclusive and “straight friendly” boxing event to be held in Sydney in 2023. Our conversation is around the courage that leaders need to make real and authentic change around inclusion and diversity. “We are experiencing social change with leaders forced to respond to employees, customers, shareholders and the public demanding radical changes to the way we approach and resolve major issues such as racism and homophobia” Martin Stark.
