Listen Later

Does high-performance require us to sacrifice our well-being? How can we make our first principles tangible and express them effortlessly in everything we do? Is there an integrative method to truth-seeking that’s applicable to all pursuits, and is there a place where truth resides and reveals itself on its own? And what steps can leaders, managers and coaches take to lead their people toward transformation?

Find out from Michael Gervais, a leading expert on the relationship between the mind and human performance, as he busts many 20th century myths about self-mastery through the art of craft-mastery, exclusively in conversation with Dr. Hitendra Wadhwa on Intersections Podcast.
