Sam Mitchell
Both a player and manager of people, Sam has spent almost two decades at the pinnacle of Australian sport with two very different but elite organisations. His firsthand experience in strategy, motivation, team dynamics, critical thinking and psychology are unparalleled.
With his inside knowledge of the machinations of global sporting entities, Sam has the advantage of knowing what differentiates an average business from an outstanding commercial organisation.
While Sam has impressive accolades under his belt with an astonishing AFL career, playing 329 AFL games, 4 Premiership sides (captaining one of them) and a Brownlow Medal, the true magic in his investment knowledge lies behind his academic accomplishments having completed a Master’s in Business Administration at Monash. Beyond academics, Sam has appeared in multiple leadership training, including public speaking, culture development and organizational change management.
Albeit having a strong appetite for leadership development and organisational theory, Sam’s real hunger lies in the transformation of people and organisations from ordinary to elite.
