Introduction
Achieving peak performance in your business is possible if you apply the Formula 1 Mindset. But don’t take it from me, folks. This week, I am joined by Marc Priestley, who brings more than a decade of experience with the World Championship-winning McLaren pit crew. Today Marc is a successful speaker, broadcaster, and author, co-presenting the widely acclaimed Wheeler Dealers television show. He is also an expert commentator on Formula 1, Formula E, and the wider motorsport industry. In this episode, Marc shares his unique perspective on the concept of an elite performance mindset, stories from the pitlane, leadership lessons, overcoming challenges, and achieving ambitious goals. If you’re serious about boosting your team’s performance, then don’t miss this epic discussion. Just like in racing, small changes can result in significant gains, so tune in now and switch gears on your team’s performance!
