Jack Austin

Hon. Jack Austin is the Lifetime Achievement Award winner in CCBC’s 5 at 50 initiative. Jack’s nomination describes him as “likely the longest serving person in both public and private life in building Canada’s modern relationship to China,” active in one or more capacities from 1970 to the present time. He has done so in four different domains: diplomacy and government, legal practice, corporate leadership, and academic leadership. Key takeaways from Jack:The impetus for Canada’s recognition of China back in 1970 was to involve China in the United Nations and help it become a supportive player in global trade, governance, etc. China was very poor in 1970 and unlikely to become an effective global trading country for several decades.Early commercial agreements focused on capability building, including oil drilling and recovery, creation of modern industry, and developing a tax system.Jack relates his experience with a whole series of Canadian and Chinese senior leaders over 50 years.He opines on what a future Government of Canada should do to forge a bilateral relationship that works for Canada, following resolution of the current diplomatic difficulties.

Something very different this time around. This is a story of how a brotherhood was forged. Jack is one of my best mates and this episode we ramble on about our time in the Alpes were we tackled 4-course meals, no sleep and avoided death on the mountain. I hope this can share a little insight into the highs and lows that ultimately changed us a lot as young men. Not every ski season is a flat out party for 5 months, but there is certainly some magic.

In this episode, I coach Jack Austin, a purpose-driven business consultant. Jack already has a big impact with his clients, but he wants to be able to connect with new clients more easily. When we started the call, he told me that he sometimes feels uncomfortable in social or 'networking' contexts, and believes he needs to get better at that. As we dive into it, we discover that what's been getting in the way is an extremely common fear; something that countless coaches and transformation professionals share. This was a really touching and moving session for both Jack and me, so I look forward to hearing how it lands for you.
