  • EP21 - Recover Like An F1 Team

    This week, I'm looking at the methods used by the Mercedes F1 Team in understanding and responding to the failures of their early season struggles and how we can apply a similar philosophy to the low points in our lives. Plus how we can all learn to realise the importance of the people round us, not just the importance of their job title.

  • EP20 - Pitstop Parenting & Red Bull Reliability

    In a week where the F1 World Champion failed for the second time in three races to reach the chequered flag, is there something we can all learn to make us more reliable and higher achievers? Plus, a hidden lesson from McLaren's Ron Dennis, that's helped me to be a better parent this week.

  • EP19 - Using Data, But Not Too Much

    This week, I'm exploring the idea that as data and modern tech has grown to such a level and we've become so reliant upon it, as is sometimes the case in F1, do we forget to utilise the old fashioned tool of common sense in our modern day, high pressure decision making process? Also, with F1 on its way to Las Vegas for a GP, what can we learn from this controversial decision?

  • EP14 - Life Is Like An F1 Test
    This week we look at the secrecy and intrigue around the F1 pre-season test and how judging what we see there can tell us something about how we all judge others around us. I'm also talking about getting the balance between technology and human experience right and the potential consequences of getting it wrong. Welcome to Pitlane Life Lessons.
