ex CSO Palo Alto Networks - From Sport to Boardroom: Lessons in Performance
Manage episode 450637671 series 3555658
qWelcome to Narrow Lanes, I'm Greg Sobiech. This week, I spoke with Bob West, a leadership expert with an impressive career, including roles as Chief Strategy Officer at Palo Alto Networks and Executive Director at Deloitte. Bob is also the co-creator of the Medalist Mindset framework, which brings principles from elite athletics into leadership and team dynamics.
This conversation is all about what business leaders can learn from high-level sports. With the Olympics recently concluded, I was struck by how many winners credited visualization for their success. Bob opened my eyes to how visualization and goal-setting can be powerful tools for achieving business success, something I haven’t fully embraced until now.
Bob shares examples from his career and personal life, illustrating how leaders can unlock peak performance through his “Narrow Lane” approach. This includes key principles like mental toughness, authenticity, continuous improvement, and visualization.
If you’ve ever wondered how to bring Olympic-level focus to your business, this episode is for you.
From Delve Deeper, this is Narrow Lanes.
