We all admire what it takes to become an Olympian, particularly in the context of discipline, but could there be a downside when that same discipline is applied to business?
You know that whether we like it or not discipline in one form or another is part of what it takes to be a great leader. But have you ever considered that there could be a downside to it? 
If there is, how can we sort out where and when strong discipline is needed? 
Well let's find out together. Our guest on this episode of #leadership and #loyalty is: 3-time Olympian, Olympic Bronze Medallist and World Champion swimmer from Mission BC Canada. Mr Brent Hayden
