Guest: Paul Roos
Host: Georgia Stormont
Paul Roos needs no introduction to AFL fans—premiership coach, elite player, and now leadership consultant and business owner. In this powerful conversation, Roosy joins Georgia to unpack the crossover between elite sport and business, especially in Agriculture, where teamwork, culture and resilience matter just as much as they do in footy.
From his early days at Fitzroy to coaching the Sydney Swans to a historic premiership win and reshaping the Melbourne Football Club, Paul shares what great leadership looks like, why self-awareness is a non-negotiable, and how we can better support young people, teams, and communities.
- What footy taught Paul about leadership, grit, and turning up even when it’s hard
- How elite coaches manage different personalities and keep teams accountable
- Why understanding your strengths (and your team’s) creates performance lift
- The importance of standards, systems, and authentic leadership in culture change
- How sport builds connection and why it matters in the modern workplace
- How parenting, coaching and leadership all overlap in influence and empathy
“Leadership is influence. And parenting is leadership.”“If the leaders don’t uphold the standards, no one else will.”“I’ve never met a perfect coach or CEO. But the best are self-aware and build great teams around them.”“Don’t let who you are get in the way of who you need to be.”
