Manage episode 508940613 series 3516413
🎧 Episode Description
In this episode of Winning Minds with Wilkinson, I sit down with my client and friend Ross Linnett, CEO of Recite Me.
Ross shares how his early years as a competitive sprinter, breaking records in the 100m and 200m, gave him the mindset and discipline that carried over into business. We talk about:
• The healthy side of competitiveness and how to keep it in check so it doesn’t spill over
• Managing a negative mind and why mastering it is critical for performance
• The power of pivoting and letting go when something isn’t working
• Lessons from leading the student union at university and how it prepared Ross for business
• Building and scaling Recite Me into an international company
• Why honesty and trust were so crucial at the beginning of the company’s journey, especially when survival was on the line
• Exploring the mindset and behaviours of a CEO
• Why health and wellbeing are non-negotiables for entrepreneurs
This conversation goes deep into the realities of sport, business, and performance with no fluff, just the lessons Ross has lived and continues to apply at the highest level.
