Episode 6: Powering Your Career - Lyndon Frearson - Managing Director Ekistica - ep006
Episode 006 of Powering Your Career is now live — and in this one, I sat down with Lyndon Frearson, Managing Director at Ekistica, whose unique career journey is matched only by the impact he’s having across some of the country’s most complex energy projects.Lyndon shares his journey from working at Ford to running one of the most fascinating businesses involved in projects ranging from large-scale transmission to remote community energy systems — and everything in between. A storyteller, systems thinker, and passionate leader, Lyndon brought incredible insight and authenticity to our chat.Here are just a few standout themes we covered: ✅ Engineering meets purpose — how curiosity and a willingness to say “yes” shaped a fulfilling and unconventional career. ✅ Mental health, vulnerability, and why building connection within teams is just as important as technical skill. ✅ Why we need to rethink Australia’s “energy transition” as an industrial transformation — and the critical role people play in its success.Lyndon’s reflections on leadership, impact and what drives him personally made this one of the most thought-provoking episodes so far. 🎧 Tune in to the episode now at: 🔗 https://www.westrecruitment.com.au/powering-your-career-podcast
