Episode 7 - What teams can learn from sport
Show Notes
Sports teams have been evaluating their effectiveness for a long time, with the singular goal of improving performance. This week, Dan and Pia are joined by former Australian rugby player Owen Finegan, to look at the way businesses and not-for-profits can use data in the same way sport has for decades. Owen played and coached professional rugby for 16 years before moving into the non-profit world, where he now sits as CEO of the Kids' Cancer Project. He took his learnings about honest – sometimes even brutal – feedback from the rugby pitch, and has adapted it to the way he leads teams, encouraging analysis combined with honesty and constructive feedback rather than criticism.

Owen Finegan is a household name in Australia as he had an outstanding career as a professional athlete, representing the Australian Wallabies and the ACT Brumbies with distinction over a 10 year period. He is now the CEO of The Kids Cancer Project, a passion he developed through his own personal experiences with childhood cancer. His work with teams in sport and now in the Not-For-Profit sector has consistently relied on the use of data to drive improvement and enable success.
