What does giving 100% really mean? For most of us, we go straight to working more, but is that really the best way forward? High performance coach Ben Coomber talks to Mark & Becky about what the reality of working ‘smarter not harder’ really involves, and addresses what leaders need to do to change and adapt to new behaviours to improve their personal and professional lives. They discuss Ben’s entrepreneurial journey; from owning more than one business, writing his bestselling book How to Live an Awesome Life, to the epiphany he had which led to his passion for helping others achieve their goals. They discuss the cultural badges of honour associated with work and careers, the impact of burnout, the phases of life and their impact on your career path, and ‘state changes’. Ben’s insights will help you get on your feet, and give you the prompt you might need to make positive improvements in your work-life balance. GET IN TOUCH!
