From the dusty goldfields of Kalgoorlie to the corridors of international libertarianism.

Ron Manners built more than just mining companies; he built movements. A fifth-generation prospector, Manners wasn’t content with striking gold underground; he struck ideological gold by challenging the intellectual status quo, founding the Mannkal Economic Education Foundation and mentoring thousands of young minds across Australia.

Damon Kitney’s new biography of Manners’ life, Heroic Humility, charts his evolution from an industrious teenager to an outspoken capitalist, exposing the personal convictions and public battles that reshaped the legacy of his century-old family business, built a gold-mining colossus named Croesus, and shaped a lifetime of challenging bureaucracy and mediocrity.

Candid, compelling and brimming with the entrepreneurial energy of its subject, this is the definitive story of a true legend in Australian business and civic life.

Don’t miss this lively conversation uncovering the ideas and lessons behind Ron’s remarkable success at 6 pm on 19 August at CIS, Level 1 | 131 Macquarie Street, Sydney 2000
