Steven Marshall (President, American Australian Association; Former Premier of South Australia) joins Will and Charlie to unpack a career spent at the crossroads of public service, business and international engagement. We dig into Steven’s time leading South Australia (2018–2022) and the tough, high-stakes decisions he made during the COVID outbreaks.

We trace his beginnings, his move from state politics into international advocacy, and what his new role at the American Australian Association actually involves — building networks, trade links and people-to-people ties between Australia and the United States.

A major thread of the conversation is why Australians keep punching above their weight in the U.S. - the cultural traits and networks that help people land at the very top of global firms.

A great listen if you have global aspirations for your career.

Description

Conversations with leaders on building careers, companies & character the hard way. No shortcuts, just sweat.

Founded by Charlie Selth, Will Chapman and Dimitri Gremos, the show began as 'The Business Of' – a passion project between Will and Charlie who were curious about what it really takes to succeed.

Today, Sweat Capital is an evolving platform that combines that same curiosity with a bigger mission: to democratise access to knowledge and humanise business leadership in Australia.
