What's the achievement specifically? -
Oh man, I love this!! I love how the model is about social impact, rather than profit. It's outstanding, and astounding.

Tasty morsel. I always saw Tim as on the money, back 15 years ago, when he was a Channel 10 luminary in the Eastern States. Is this still the case?
-
Serious? Have I been living under a rock? Where has this been surmised?
-
Oh, it's totally a long bow to draw... I was just letting a bunch of randoms on a forum I like, know my obscure thoughts.

I'm sure ol mate @deejammin' can defend him or her or themself (if that consideration aint to 'woke' for you). People are entitled to post their opinion, as are you. Nonetheless, 'Play the ball, not the man' .

I've certainly had thoughts that echoed my belief around the year that James Frawley was playing forward - thus exposing another player to the back line (and our back line learning not to have James in it). I'm getting a distinct 'chip' vibe about Brayshaws move to half back.

It's a good point. I'll choose my words a bit more carefully. It appears he was more evolved than the sociocultural system in place at the time. He was addressing, sexism, racism and other forms of bigotry 10 years ago in a system that was not ready for that to be addressed. Importantly, he was not being compliant (and is still not) to what he feels is acceptable for his distress to be redressed, whereas I suspect many other people would be compliant. People get paid out all the time in these situations, people sign non-disclosure agreements. That aint Heretier's style. Can you help me understand what you meant by "Can anyone imagine Bernie Vince getting up on the best and fairest night and declaring he was a prince. It simply wouldn't happen"

For those that think he should 'move on' - It's often those who say someone should move on, because a) they don't genuinely relate to why someone is choosing to pursue change, or b) they're part of the problem themselves, but just don't see it. My take is this... (and my client work is with people whereby they feel a system/organisation has never supported them when they've attempted to address cultural or OHS issues (or whatever issue it is). I always ask the question around their mental health and the choice to walk away and have immediate 'stress or anxiety' taken away to 'move on with their day to day living' - or the choice to continue to hold people/organisations to account, which will be demanding and take a toll often over many years. The impact on them and their families is always huge, always painful. When an individual chooses to continue to 'fight' against a system that is stacked against them, it's never about money. It's often about protecting others in the future who will come into that organisation. They are being clear on their values, and behaving inline with that... stepping away is incongruent with creating positive change He is clearly a principled person (whether you agree with his is another story), and actively choosing not to 'move on' is his prerogative. This is not about ego, it's about values. The energy and effort that is required by Heretier, is tremendous, compounded further that his is a minority, choosing to speak out and hold to account a system/organisation that failed him.

A simple answer is the relationship of the person to the experience and the trauma that has occurred. I think as a society, we need to move beyond having a time frame on 'dealing' with things. Recently, it took me 35 years to start to acknowledge my own trauma, that I am currently processing. And I'm a pretty well adjusted person that functions mostly well in society.
