Welcome to the 15 Minutes with the Boss summer series edition, where we bring you exclusive extended interviews with some of our favourite episodes. In this week’s episode, we revisit our conversation with Sydney Swans chief executive Tom Harley. 

This extended version dives deep into Tom’s reflections on a pivotal career failure—losing the 2008 AFL Grand Final—and how it shaped his leadership journey. He shares personal stories of his father’s influence on his approach to parenting and being a role model, along with his insights on mental health and the power of making positive choices.
