Juanita Farrell

Welcome to another episode of the Aquatic Mentors podcast. I am your host, Katrina van Eyk.

In this episode I interview an industry professional who has been involved in HR and Leadership management for the Paul Sadler franchise over the last 11 years. So, please extend a big welcome to the podcast for Juanita Farrell.

Juanita started her journey in swimming while facilitating conferences for the Paul Sadler swim school staff. She drew on her background in training and development which she developed while working in her roles through Flight Centre and other businesses.

When a People and Culture role was advertised in the Paul Sadler franchise Juanita took the chance to apply and received the role giving her the opportunity to expand on her leadership skills. This role began as a part time giving her a taste of the industry before she progressed in the business to a full-time role as the HR and Leadership manager.

During her time in the role Juanita has inspired leaders from the franchise to learn more about their skills and how to develop a great team of people around them who are engaged in their work.

Juanita’s highlights in the industry include running two conferences for the Paul Sadler management teams in 2018 and 2019 titled Legacy and Powerful Leadership Lessons Learnt from Tribes. In both conferences Juanita and other presenters researched and facilitated activities which would develop those attending the conference’s and leave a lasting legacy in the Paul Sadler network.

She enjoys focusing on self-improvement and understands that our industry is not one that stagnates and that we always need to be developing new and interesting ways to improve the industry and make it more attractive to the public while continually improving ourselves along the way.

Through today’s episode Juanita shares some insights into her work as well as her thoughts on swimming and where she see’s swimming moving to in the future.
