EP 172: Mind The Gap: Closing The Gap Between Good Intentions And Getting It Done - Marcus Child
Where are leaders commonly coming unstuck as business owners?
Marcus Child built his reputation helping many well-known UK organisations embrace change successfully. A natural storyteller, Marcus has supported an astonishing number of CEOs, MDs, boards, business teams, sportspeople, and politicians to realise bold and extraordinary goals. Marcus uses work as an opportunity for self-improvement, creating new habits practised in the mind and through relationships to move from good intentions to getting it done.
Here's what we discuss in this week's show:

― Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
