Covid has left many of us asking questions about what’s important and what we really want to do. To help people find answers I decided to build on my popular 2019 “Perspectives from the Top” video series, some of which is in the video blogs here, and get 25 highly successful people to share their insights on how to achieve success via a podcast series.

As well as guests insight interviews every 2 weeks the week after each episode I will publish a “Reflections on the Top” summary of the guests key points, some of my insights and suggestions for action in future.

There are so many amazing people wanting to contribute to the series I’m now going to have to do more than 25 episodes! This will also give me even more valuable insights and stories to share with my keynote and Masterclass audiences!
