What Rugby League taught me about leadership

He is a QLD supporter and me – NSW.

He is a Broncos supporter and me – Knights.

One thing we do have in common is that we are both passionate about culture, leadership and teamwork across business and sport so, it is an honour to be invited to be a guest on The Culture of Things (TCoT) podcast. This opportunity has given me the chance to chat about where my journey began and what rugby league has taught me about leadership.

My conversation with Brendan Rogers, host of TCoT, delves into my leadership style which has shaped the success of Sharp Property Buyers. We chat about my unwavering commitment to establish a happy work culture. This stems from reflecting on the good, bad and ugly leadership and culture practices I experienced during my 10 years working at a corporate level. These invaluable lessons put me in good stead when it came to building and developing a successful buyers agency.

My other leadership role is coaching the Sydney Roosters elite junior level.  I strive to create an environment where the young players are challenged, rewarded and encouraged. I also place high value on giving them regular feedback while adopting an all-round holistic approach.

Join Brendan and I over at The Culture of Things podcast to learn more about my passion for connecting with people and taking ownership of my role as a leader.
