Episode #155 // Earlier this month, the Tokyo Olympics provided a welcome distraction from some of the other pressing global issues that have dominated our attention for what seems like an eternity! I couldn’t help but notice the stark leadership lessons that came from watching elite athletes striving to make their long-term vision a reality. These opportunities don’t come around often, so being on your game (on the day) is all-important. For these athletes and coaches, it’s a much less forgiving environment than most of us operate in. So what can we learn about strategy? About delivering in the ‘clutch’ moments when performing under extreme pressure? And what is the surprising lesson on diversity? These seven leadership lessons are sure to give us all pause for thought. // To celebrate the publication of my book No Bullsh!t Leadership, we’re bringing you a free virtual launch event on the 31st August (1st September in Australia)! This event will take you on a journey to insight, with an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look into my leadership path. This interview isn’t just about the book, it’s about the hardest leadership (and life) lessons that I have gone through--the things that worked, the things that didn’t work, and the underlying motivators that inspired me to take on the US market. Save your spot and join the official launch event here!   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
