A Feature Length Interview with Gary Crotaz

A feature length episode with Gary Crotaz, who is executive and mindset coach and author.

Gary’s first career was in medicine, where he became a respiratory doctor. While he was doing his final exams, he searched for a role in management consultancy.

Gary’s second career was a tough, starting at the bottom after 8 years as a student doctor. Gary built a successful business career while balancing a professional career as a ballroom dancer.

We talk about Gary’s new book called IDEA Mindset which has been inspired by his career and coaching. He talks about the importance of being a great leader and believe in your career.

This is a fascinating conversation; I hope you enjoy the podcast!
