About the Show

Probably a little bit like me, sharks are misunderstood and incredibly curious. That is why I created the show with a fearless focus and constant curiosity about people and how they are affected by business and life. When you are diving in waters with sharks, you learn to be very aware. We also need a better awareness and focus on service. And yes, I am passionate about sharks. So, let’s dive deeper.

The popular and top-rated “A Shark’s Perspective” podcast launched in 2018 and has since featured hundreds of conversations with me and some of the most well known and amazing business leaders, authors, hall of fame speakers, disruptors, and innovators in the world.

Remember to keep swimming and learn with a different perspective. I sincerely hope that you enjoy the show!
