Lessons from Sir Reginald Ansett
LESSONS FROM SIR REGINALD ANSETT Reg Ansett became one of the wealthiest and most influential businessmen in Australia, with interests over a vast range of industries from television stations and air transport to credit card organisations. However, he would describe himself as an aviator. He was born in February 1909 in Inglewood, Victoria. His father owned a bicycle repair shop. When war broke out in 1914 his father enlisted and his mother and young Reg moved to Melbourne, settling in Camberwell. He left school at fourteen to find a job to help the family finances. He commenced work at a knitting factory becoming a highly-skilled sewing machine mechanic, until he was twenty-one. By then his dreams had been full of daring flight, particularly of his hero, Charles Kingsford Smith. He cashed in on an insurance policy to raise the funds for flying lessons and became the 419th Australian to be granted a licence. Unfortunately, at the time, the Depression was beginning to hurt the economy and opportunities for young pilots were limited. Showing his entrepreneurial spirit he decided that there was income to be made from growing peanuts in the Northern Territory, so he took a ship to Darwin. He soon realised it was not a well thought through plan and instead worked as an axeman clearing trees for surveyors. However, the experience in the vast distances of the Northern Territory confirmed to him that there was a great future in the transport business. He returned to Melbourne, purchased a second-hand Sudebaker car and decided to establish himself in the West of Victoria and began and taxi service from Hamilton to Ballarat. -

Target outcome: To foster employment and retention of more young people by providing careers advice on local industries with employment potential, linked with more available traineeships and apprenticeships. Key points: - Our region’s youth unemployment rate is 50% higher than the NSW state average. - There is a decline in the number of apprenticeships being offered in the region. - The current school based traineeship process is overly complicated for students, teachers and employers. -
