20: Adam Sachs | Self-Discovery Towards Massive Momentum


Listen Later

Can you achieve your moonshot goals if you play it safe and shy away from taking calculated risks?

On today’s show, we interview Executive Coach and Change management expert Adam Sachs who shares with us his distilled wisdom on discovering your passion, leveraging your strengths, and taking the path less trodden.

Like most of us, growing up, Adam was really confused about his career path. So, after high school, he dabbled in a variety of industries like construction and internet marketing. 

When Adam was in this exploratory mode, most of his friends chose to stick to the tried and tested path.

As a result, when Adam was slumming it out, his friends and peers seemingly left him far behind in the proverbial rat race.

In this segment of the show, you will learn why you need to find the courage and patience to sacrifice short-term gains for massive forward momentum.

After much trial and error, Adam finally chanced upon coaching and consulting. And he even took on debt so that he could get could the necessary certification.

Adam’s conviction paid off big time when he was hired as a coach for Edward Jones. Currently, Adam works as a business and organizational leadership coach for CACI International Inc. 

On today’s show, you will learn why you need to be a constant learner if you hope to find yourself on the edge of excellence. 

Enjoy!
