Pepper Money Hosts Exclusive Broker Event to "Train Like a Tiger" Alongside Wests Tigers Legends

Pepper Money’s Head of Broker Partnerships, Siobhan Williams, commented on the event: “It was an incredible experience to see the dedication and hard work that goes into training at the highest level. Benji and Brett’s insights on leadership and teamwork were truly inspiring. We are grateful to the Wests Tigers for hosting us and to our broker partners for their continued support.”

“The coaching and leadership styles of head coaches Benji Marshall and Brett Kimmorley offer valuable lessons in resilience. Brokers and our entire industry will need to demonstrate resilience and strong leadership to navigate the things we cannot control. The ability to bounce back from the setbacks, adapt your business strategy, and remain steadfast in the pursuit of client success is what defines excellence,” she said.

“You’ll see some players; they’ll have five good games and then they’ll have one bad game and think that defines their whole season – not thinking about the five games that were good. They’re human – they react the same way anyone would to criticism and that can be distracting. The approach I like to take is show my team what they are good at – I’ll say, let’s just focus on that.”

Mr Marshall also spoke intimately about the importance of his family, saying, “Success on the field means nothing if you don’t have your family by your side. Always put family first, because they are your true team and biggest supporters.”

On how to stay motivated, Mr Marshall emphasised that his driving force has always been purpose: “For me, it’s not just about the footy or the financial aspects; it’s about the people on my team. Every single day, I have the chance to inspire my team to strive for excellence, not just in their performance, but in their personal growth as well. That sense of purpose keeps me motivated and passionate about what I do.”

“Whether you’re on the sporting field or in business, whatever it is you do in life, picture yourself on the field – you have six tackles or six passes to make something happen. The principle is the same for those of you here today, running your own business in your own professional field: hard work is crucial, and success requires consistent effort.”
