My guest today is Peter Lochert, Secretary, Department of Parliamentary Services at the Parliament of Victoria.
Peter was born in Chile and migrated to Australia with his family in 1971 when he was 18 years old, and didn't speak a word of English.
From a comfortable existence to mucking out the chicken coop then climbing the ranks of senior leadership, Peter's story is common among Australia's migrants. In Peter's own words, never be defined by your boundaries.

I'd delighted to be joined in this episode of the Love What You Do podcast by Managing Director of RiskCom and Chairman, Cricket Australia, Earl Eddings.
In his own words, Earl has lead a 'portfolio career'. But that's just Earl being humble. His career kicked-off as a consultant in work health & safety and through passion & persistence, he quickly rose the ranks to take senior leadership roles in large organisations.
Despite his success, Earl has stayed grounded and connected to his purpose throughout his career via his volunteer work.
This is one of my favourite conversations of 2020 and I hope you draw inspiration from Earl's wisdom.

Host, Rob Cugno, recorded this podcast in-person early in 2020, before COVID-19 and #BlackLivesMatter made headlines.
My guest is Levi McKenzie-Kirkbright, a young Koori man who, for his entire life, has walked in two worlds. Levi shares his raw, personal and deeply moving story about his life, family, study and now career as a software engineer for the Indigenous Data Network at the University of Melbourne.
In this podcast, we discuss:
The personal and professional challenges young indigenous people face walking in two worlds Levi's decision to quit medicine and follow his passion to study technology, against family and cultural expectations The narrative of failure and why it's not a black and white issueLevi's #1 career tip: Ask yourself 'what gift do I have to give the world?'.
During our conversation, Levi makes a couple of important references, which I want to share with you:
Uluru Statement from the Heart - in 2017, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders came together to write a collective statement to the Parliament of Australia about Indigenous Australian's position on sovereignty and treaty. Talking to My Country by Stan Grant (2017) - a book that has inspired Levi on his life and career journey. -
This podcast was recorded in late 2019 but it's more relevant now. As Rob's guest, Anthony Peyton, says in the interview 'the world is changing'. Anthony is a great example of someone taking a career pivot within the same industry but taking a different role. In this podcast Rob and Anthony discuss: Why sometimes, you don't know what you're capable of because you're stuck on the train tracks How to know your purpose to grow your influence Why being in 'intrapreneur' will create opportunities that match your skills Why it's important check in with your support network as you make changes in your career
Anyone looking to progress their career in 2020 needs determination and an open and inquiring mind. I hope you draw inspiration from Anthony's story.
