It has been a while between episodes but we are back with Episode 33 featuring Steve Baldas the Tennis SA CEO. We speak about his sports administration journey, his journey as a player and what is happening in Tennis SA.

In Episode 32 I catch up with Ali Clarke (of ABC Adelaide 891 and Netball SA) and we chat about everything from good governance to media engagement! Ali was a great guest and she has a real passion for sport.

In my last episode for 2015, I had the great opportunity to sit with the CEO of the Port Adelaide Football Club, Keith Thomas! This is the longest episode yet, but I felt that it deserved to be listened to in full as Keith was a fantastic guest. We chat about all things PAFC, what the role of an AFL CEO is and mostly, we talk about leading change as Keith has done at Port Adelaide in his tenure.

If you enjoyed this episode, please share it as I think Keith has some great insight that many can learn from.

Merry Christmas!

In Episode 28 I chat to the operators of the Australian Sports Commission's Clearing House of Sport which is a fantastic resource for all sport administrators and Club officials. We chat about what the Clearing House is and how it can best be utilised!

Episode 27 features Robert McMurtrie, the founder and Director of Sportspeople.com.au. Robert and I discuss everything from how Sportspeople was established and their current role through to work life balance and how future administrators should approach job applications. This is one of my favourite episodes yet and a must for all sport administrators!

While I was at the Our Sporting Future Conference I managed to catch up with Andrew Ramsay, Director for Sport Insights and Government Relations with the Australian Sports Commission. We had a great chat that covered a number of areas from management of staff to the new Play.Sport.Australia. policy document from the ASC.
