Paul Roos

Leadership and team culture are Paul Roos's subjects, and his evidence comes from football. He played in the AFL before moving into coaching, and his coaching roles include the Sydney Swans and the Melbourne Football Club. Two ideas run through his talks. Set clear expectations, then give people real responsibility for meeting them. He also looks at what the shift from player to coach taught him about leading, which will ring true for anyone who's been promoted to run the team they used to play in. He suits a leadership offsite, a management conference or a sporting club function.
