## Caption

Steve Whately spent his first years out of university auditing financial statements for kpmgaustralia , including sport clients like golfaust and hawthornfc 

Years later, he walked into an interview for Head of Sales at the afl with a single slide, roughly 25 of the biggest brand logos in Australian advertising, every one he'd personally sold to.

In tomorrow's episode, Steve breaks down that slide, the five-person consultancy that gave him his start in sport, and how a decade of corporate experience became the exact reason the AFL hired him.

🎙️ Tune in to Episode #372 of the SportsGrad Podcast tomorrow wherever you get your pods to hear the full story.
