The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

I mean, I've run 75 unsuccessful board tilts before this latest 11.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

So that'll bring it up to 86.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

So I'm probably going to settle in at 250 AGMs, EGMs a year and maybe 20, 25 board tilts.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler

Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

And they wouldn't do that.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

So I said, okay, I'm going to continue with that run.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

But yeah, look, it's quite effective in terms of moving market practice.

Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

And people have to take it more seriously because words at an AGM, they're just words.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler

It actually causes something to happen.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

The board has to talk about it.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

You fight about the words.

The Money Café with Alan Kohler
Barrels, Boards, and Big Questions

You have votes.
