Hi everyone, Today we welcome ST, otherwise known as Simon Thomas, a high-performance consultant from New Zealand.

In this episode, we discuss what ancient Māori wisdom has taught him, how to create a story that unites your people, how to ensure you have the right people on the bus in the first place, and how to create a culture where people put the organisation’s success before their own self-interest.
