#32 Post-Election Playbook for Aussie Critical Industries | Kathryn Conroy

The election’s over. Now comes the real work.

In this episode of Intelligence Optimised, Todd Crowley talks with Kathryn Conroy—partner at Premier National—about what Australia’s post-election landscape means for business leaders, especially those in energy, critical minerals, logistics, infrastructure, and agribusiness.

Kathryn brings decades of frontline experience in politics and policy to unpack what’s coming next—and what businesses should already be doing.

✅ What the election result means for how fast policy will move
✅ How SMBs can get ahead—before decisions are locked in
✅ What a real parliamentary engagement plan looks like
✅ Why relationships (not press releases) shift outcomes in Canberra
✅ What’s changing in regional diplomacy and trade—including with China and the US

No jargon. No spin. Just real insights for operators trying to plan, invest, and grow in a shifting landscape.

📌 Who should watch:
✔️ Founders and executives in critical industries
✔️ Corporate affairs and strategy teams
✔️ Investors scanning post-election policy signals
✔️ Advisors working across the Indo-Pacific
