Episode 78: Steve Morris & The EOS Life: How To Live Your Ideal Entrepreneurial Life by Gino Wickman.
Steve, a Business Coach with an educational background in mechanical engineering and aerodynamics, is someone who is focused on performance — of every kind. He is another great example of who someone is today being the culmination of all their experiences to date.
His educational and career journeys took him from being a mechanical
engineering student, to working on and designing racing yachts, to Coaching
teams based on his experience working with those racing teams.
Each successive experience builds on the previous, leading Steve’s curiosity to move from the mechanical to the emotional, from systems to people. Since he was a child, he’s been fascinated with taking things apart and studying them to see how they function.
