How to avoid mistakes when facing reputation damage is something that we discuss on the podcast today. After 25+ years working in the high-stakes, high-speed world of NASCAR, IndyCar, and Formula 1, Mike Mooney has seen firsthand how elite teams consistently outperform the competition—not because they have more talent, but because they execute brilliantly in the micro-moments others overlook. That's the foundation of his work today—helping executives, leaders, and teams unlock championship-level performance under pressure using a dynamic framework he has developed called Your E.P.I.C. Pursuit™. This framework empowers leaders and teams with the four essential keys that all high performers use - and you should be too! Mike's keynotes, workshops, and coaching programs have helped companies like Frito Lay, U.S. Bank, U.S. Army, PepsiCo, and Advance Auto Parts drive daily leadership habits that deliver measurable business results. If you're ready to equip your leaders and teams to show up strong, execute with precision, and thrive under pressure—connect with Mike Mooney today!
