The speeches circuit is getting back into full gear, and President Obama will next year head to Australia to deliver speeches on leadership
The former leader of the Democratic Party is one of only five US presidents to have visited Australia while in office.
Obama served as the 44th US president from 2009-2017.
He’ll speak in Sydney and Melbourne in late March with tickets set to go on sale soon.
