Mike Baird had a successful career in banking before going into politics – eventually becoming the 44th Premier of NSW. He returned to banking after ten years in politics but recently moved to become CEO of HammondCare – a large Christian charity that provides dementia and aged care along with palliative care. Their mission – to improve the quality of life for people in need.
Mike’s younger brother Steve was also had a successful career in the corporate world, and has made a significant shift to International Justice Mission Australia – part of the largest anti-slavery organisation in the world.
This week we hear from the brothers, Mike and Steve–what it was like growing up together, the people and experiences that have shaped them most and why they moved from the corporate world into the not-for-profit sector. What motivates them both in leading two organisations seeking to offer assistance to people in great need?
