Supply shock coming, consumer confidence rock bottom: Warnings from the CommsCon stage
Ben Wicks, executive director public affairs and advocacy, at the Business Council of Australia issued a grim forecast
The Business Council of Australia has warned PR and communications professionals of a looming financial shock at the CommsCon conference in Sydney.
Speaking at the final session at Wednesday’s event at the Crown, Sydney, Ben Wicks, executive director of public affairs and advocacy for the Business Council of Australia — an organisation that represents 120 of the biggest business in the country — explained that he met with a number of government ministers in Canberra this week, including Treasurer Jim Chalmers.
After meeting with the ministers, Wicks believes that “trust is going to be really tested for all of our businesses in the coming weeks and coming months.”
