The Business Of

Game days start hours before the opening siren for Sydney Swans’ COO Drew Arthurson. His game prep usually includes hosting corporate events. And sometimes making coffee for the players.  

Everyone in the organisation has their own game-day rituals, but when you break it down, it’s the art and science of how individuals do their best work. 

Elite performance is what everyone at the Sydney Swans strives for, regardless of their role. Drew explains the key leadership principles underpinning that shared goal.
