What businesses can learn from the Matildas about champion teams

The Matildas’ journey in the 2023 World Cup was nothing short of inspiring. It felt like a pivotal moment for women’s sports – a surge of passion and enthusiasm for inclusive change. Ahead of the upcoming Paris Olympics, this milestone event has me reflecting on what it takes to transform an ordinary team into a champion squad like the Matildas.

If you’ve been caught up in the excitement of the Olympic Games as we have, you’d agree that it’s not just about cheering for your favourite team; it’s about believing in their mission and purpose. Loyalty and pride lay the foundation, but it’s the belief and shared purpose that really get the ball rolling.

Beyond raw talent, it’s the understanding of roles, seamless communication, mutual support and a crystal-clear, shared vision that make the real difference.
