Listen "The Making of a Sports Leader: Insights from Greg Brownlow"
Episode Synopsis
Greg Brownlow began his sporting journey with a racquet in hand, rising through Australia’s tennis ranks before earning a scholarship to play Division 1 college tennis in the U.S. at Austin Peay State University. After completing a degree in Business Administration, Greg launched into a pro tennis career—until injury cut it short. That moment became a turning point, leading him into elite coaching roles on both the ATP and WTA tours and later founding the Future Star Academy, where he developed nationally and globally ranked players. Today, Greg brings the same high-performance mindset to his dual role as CEO of the Central Coast Mariners and Business Development & Strategic Partnerships Manager at Central Coast Sports College. In this episode, Amber Daines speaks with Greg about the personal growth that comes from navigating identity shifts, the emotional highs and lows of elite sport, and what it means to lead with integrity in business and community. He reflects on building environments that allow athletes—and people—to flourish, and the legacy he hopes to leave in sport and leadership.
