In this episode Becks chats to Keri Johnston, chair of the IrrigationNZ board, farming wife and mother, natural resources engineer and founding director and principle of Irricon Resource Solutions. Keri’s professional passion for land and water shines strongly through our conversation and her career to date.
This Episode is based around UN Sustainable Development Goal 6 - Clean Water and Sanitation which is focused on ensuring water availability and sustainable management of water sanitation for all which aligns perfectly with the holistic and integrated water management approach that Keri is taking along with both IrrigationNZ and Irricon Resource Solutions.
This is a timely conversation around our opportunity to do what is right over what is easy, to demonstrate bravery in our leadership and discuss the mindset shift required to approach the rate and degree of challenge currently facing our sector. Keri is a compassionate leader walking the talk of bringing a vision to life with the beautiful underlying intention of giving back to a sector that has given so much to her.
