Abstract

AbstractThis paper explores challenges and opportunities of place‐based regional development leadership in the Australian context. Drawing on primary data from the recent Australian Government Inquiry into Regional Development and Decentralisation, an analysis of narratives from regional development organizations reveals governance tensions grounded in a deep cultural divide between capital cities and the regions collectively known as “Regional Australia.” As regional development organizations describe how State and Federal policy relates to their own diverse regional contexts, they highlight missed opportunities and illustrate how current governance arrangements limit the room to manoeuvre of place‐based regional development leadership.
