Former British middleweight and super-middleweight boxing champion, Paul Smith, is no stranger to the nerves, tension and anxiety around a big fight that are needed to propel a professional athlete to the top. But how do athletes turn these emotions into a positive when they’re often feared in so many other situations?
That’s the topic up for discussion in the first episode of Series 8 of the Taking Care of Business, as Paul delves into the mindset needed to manage stress and fear on the world’s biggest stages, as well as the lessons and coping mechanisms the ‘everyday workplace’ can learn from the experience of an elite athlete.
Paul also covers Smith’s move into becoming a boxing manager following his retirement at 38 years old, as well as how he’s working to advise his boxing brothers to fulfil their career aspirations.
