About this listen
Before leading the Swiss Biotech Association, Michael Altorfer was a kid who struggled to focus and avoided making big decisions.
What changed?
A 7-month solo trip that reshaped how he saw the world—and himself.
In this episode of Leadership Lab, Michael opens up about how traveling helped him find direction, build confidence, and develop a leadership style rooted in curiosity, perspective, and purpose.
🎙️ With Maurice Thornton, they explore:
Why slowing down sometimes helps you move forward
How personal growth feeds professional leadership
The path from indecision to impact in the world of biotech
This is a story about exploration—geographically and personally—and how getting lost can be exactly what leads you where you need to go.
