Today, I have Jeff Bates, the team captain for Team Nika on the World's Toughest Race.
Jeff takes us on this beautiful journey from love to loss. He shows us how it should look like when things go right, and also when things go horribly wrong.
He is a true testament to owning your experiences – and, well, just making lemonade out of lemons!
Jeff is the director of operations at a hospital where he oversees about 200 people. And one of the most interesting things he said on the show was that he learned more about leadership during the race than he ever had in an office setting.
So get ready for some fresh perspective and lessons on life, love, and leadership!
In this episode, you will hear:
- A beautiful love story
- The power of interacting between different teams
- Assembling the team (where some members have never personally met!)
- The different stresses they had to face pre-Eco-Challenge
- One thing to know about endurance sports
- Quitting doesn’t mean failing
- Leading a team in the Eco-Challenge vs. leading a team at a company
- The kind of people you need to find for your team
Join the adventure!
