Introducing one of the wisest leadership coaches I know — Richard Govrett
From ResponseABLE with Professor Nikki James · 45:44
Show by Professor Nikki James
Richard Gorvett is the founder of Deep Wave, a global leadership development community that takes a long-arch, regenerative approach to system innovation and change. Richard and I have been friends for 15+ years, and I've watched him build a career and life that is inextricably linked to his purpose. In this podcast episode, we talk about how we met and Richard's journey from an anxious teen, through university and the career he thought he wanted, to leaving it all behind to find his purpose in Africa, which led to him being the Global Program & Impact Director of Reach for Change, where he supported thousands of Social Entrepreneurs all over the world. This is just Part 1 of Richard's story, and it's already filled with valuable insights. Stay tuned for Part 2, where he really drops some wisdom we can all learn from.
