We know it’s very much out of left field, and a real change of pace from our normal engineering or water flavoured focus, but with footy grand finals for AFL and NRL coming up, The Good Drop podcast wanted to delve into the world of sport, specifically, Strategy in sport.
But before we go further, firstly our apologies that this episode has been issued a little later than usual due to extenuating circumstances – but its fitting that this episode (our 23rd) pays homage to the importance of the number 23 in sport, most famously worn by Michael Jordan as well as the great cricketing icon in Shane Warne.
Our Guest today was Strategic Consultant and CEO of Strategem Holdings, Andrew Larratt. Stratagem Holdings has worked with a diverse client base, with many sporting and non-sporting organisations to develop and implement a winning strategy, and transform teams and organisations to maximise their potential.
Andrew has provided advice to large sporting organisations such as Athletics Australia, the Australian Sports Commission, Rugby Australia and Cricket Australia, and has built a career on understanding an organisation’s needs and a path to success.
Our crossing paths with Andrew was, as interesting encounters sometimes are, by pure chance – a serendipitous moment. During AWA’s OzWater conference in Sydney this year, we took time out for dinner to discuss the Good Drop podcast and its future plans for guests.
Our discussion points with Andrew were wide reaching. Some of the key issues we discussed was about how he goes about helping sporting organisations be more creative, how he drives change, both of which are aimed at achieving a different future. We also touched on how to measure success, and how to overcome the diversity issue in elite sports.
Andrew was an incredible communicator, a big picture thinker – and this resulted in a wonderful conversation.
Enjoy his story and be inspired by his genuine, down to earth words of wisdom.
