16. Craig Johns - NRG2PERFORM

Kate & Paul talk to Craig Johns.  It's a really enlightening episode for Triathletes, Business people and even people just trying to get through their daily lives at the moment.

We talk about managing time, split tri-suits, dodgy hair cuts, working with the Dalai Lama and a golfing handicap!

Craig has 25 years global experience working in the sport, health, mind, education and hospitality industries where he has thrived on helping people become high performing leaders. He is relentlessly curious and has an obsession with human behaviour and performance. 

After being hospitalised three times with stress related heart problems and burnout, which included flat-lining in the emergency room, Craig Johns realised that he needed to be more than a leader of high performance and become a high performing leader. He has now transferred those strategies into working with CEO’s, senior executives, coaches and leaders from some of the world’s leading companies including Nestle, P&G, Standard Chartered, JP Morgan, AIG, Boyden and Nike.

Born in New Zealand, he has was an elite athlete he competed at the Hawaii Ironman, four World Triathlon Championships and continues to play competitive golf. A hip replacement and second pacemaker, at the age of 30, meant a full-time shift to focusing on being a high performance leader, CEO and National Head Coach.

He has coached and managed multiple Olympians, National Champions and World Championship athletes. He has worked with world leaders such as the Dalai Lama, Mind and Life Institute, WTA Tennis, IRONMAN Triathlon and United World College.

Seriously, this is well worth a listen and EVERYONE will be able to take something away from this podcast!
