233: Sébastien Page, Chief Investment Officer at T. Rowe Price on the Psychology of Leadership
Manage episode 522148107 series 2876832
Sébastien Page is the Chief Investment Officer at T. Rowe Price, one of the world’s largest investment management firms. Sebastien oversees a team of investment professionals who manage more than $500 billion in assets, and he rose from a non-English-speaking intern to the C-suite. Sébastien is also the author of the book, The Psychology of Leadership.
In this episode we discuss the following:
- For the sports psychologist and 40-time national handball champ Daniel Zimet, his best match ever was a loss.
- Roger Federer, one of the greatest tennis players of all time, lost nearly half the points in his career.
- Outcomes are noisy, and are only loose signals of decision quality. True peak performance, whether in sports, investing, or life, isn’t always about winning. It’s about a relentless focus on the process.
- At the highest levels, listening beats speaking, strategic patience often beats knee-jerk decisiveness, and the courage to quit can matter more than blind persistence.
- None of this matters if we’re running on empty. The foundation of sustained excellence is sleep, diet, and exercise.
