Michael Kasprowicz joins 5 Oceans Media with extensive experience and many relationships in professional sport, business and media.
He represented Australia in cricket for over eleven years and his home State of Queensland for an incredible 19 seasons, becoming the second highest wicket taker of all time in Australian domestic cricket behind Clarie Grimmett.
As the Director of Cricket for 5 Oceans Media, ‘Kasper’ is responsible for the identification of new client opportunities and the delivery of strategic marketing outcomes. With his experience as a professional sportsman, he is ideally suited to mentor new talent throughout their careers.
Kasper is also experienced in international business, specializing in India, consulting on brand and media awareness with the University of Queensland. He also has developed many relationships with key industry advisors dealing with India and the sub-continent.
He regularly performs speaking presentations based on the many messages that elite sport lends to business. He specializes in personal branding, performance sustainability and ‘good v great’ teamwork for organisations such as Suncorp, CB Richard Ellis, Ernst and Young.
Recently, Kasper has been heavily involved with Fox Sports’ cricket coverage.
He sits on the board of the Queensland Cricketer’s Club and is studying a Graduate Certificate in Executive Leadership at the University of Queensland.
Considered by many as an exceptional team-man, Michael provides a classic insight into the structure of how successful team environments exist.
“Michael Kasprowicz is a classic example of a guy who is willing to lay it all on the line for the betterment of the team. In a warped way, he probably suffered during his career because of his generous and giving nature.
He never did whinge or drop his bundle, and played a major role in setting the benchmarks of character and building the pyramid of success the current Australian side continues to maintain.”
