(https://ghapodcast.com)**********************************************************************Ben Hunt-Davis won Olympic Gold with Team GB’s men’s rowing eight at the Sydney 2000 Games, not by working harder than everyone else, but by obsessing over one question: Will it make the boat go faster? That mindset became the foundation of his work in leadership and performance. Today, Ben co-leads Will It Make The Boat Go Faster?, a performance consultancy helping organisations define their equivalent of a “gold medal” and build the habits, behaviours, and focus required to achieve it. His work spans global corporates, professional services firms, and leadership teams under pressure to deliver results in complex environments. In this conversation, we’ll unpack how consultants and firm owners can apply performance thinking to growth, client delivery, team culture, and personal energy, without burning out or chasing the wrong metrics. ********************************************************** Proposed Interview Structure: 1. What first got you into performance consulting after retiring from elite sport? 2. What problem do you see most leaders and teams struggling with today, and why does it matter so much to you? 3. Who are your ideal clients today, and who typically makes the decision to work with you? 4. How do organisations usually discover you, and what’s worked best in attracting the right opportunities over the years? Sub Question: What’s your view on podcasting as a marketing and credibility-building tool in the consulting and leadership space? 5. Your work often involves senior leaders and long buying cycles, how do you typically move from interest to commitment? 6. In your own consulting business, how do you retain clients over time, what do you deliberately do to make sure clients come back, expand the work, and build long-term trusted relationships rather than one-off engagements? 7. Where do you find yourself most stuck right now in your own consulting business (if at all), whether in growth, delivery, or focus? 8. Looking ahead, where do you see the biggest opportunities for your work over the next few years?*********************************************************************Know more about Ben Hunt-DavisWebsite Link: http://www.willitmaketheboatgofaster.com/Connect with Ben Hunt-Davis on LinkedInLinkedIn link: https://www.linkedin.com/in/benhuntdavis/Apply to be a guest on Consulting Leaders:https://ghapodcast.com/application-to-be-a-guest-on-consulting-leaders/
