Description

Hands up if you know what a mentalist is? Now put your hand down if you've actually met one in real life instead of seen them on TV... yeah, same. Mentalism is real, and it has some important lessons to teach us in the field of human behaviour, which is of course relevant to leadership as well as important business areas from security to sales and beyond. This week, we have a whole bunch of extra episodes in celebration of reaching the 200th Episode milestone on Leading with Integrity. Kicking us off today is Gary Chan, Mentalist, Security Expert, and Speaker. We talk about how Gary combines his love of magic, real-world mentalism and security, illustrating how mentalism can be a powerful tool in leadership too. And we even find time for a card trick that, not gunna lie, kind of blew my mind a bit....
