#007 The Cricketer and Coach | Gary Kirsten

--:--
'The result' is the most lethal term in the world! I hate the word result.

Gary Kirsten, former International Cricketer, International Cricket Coach, Leadership Consultant, Philanthropist and Entrepreneur.

Gary shares details of his international cricketing career (101 test matches and 185 One day Internationals for South Africa) including the failures, low points and struggles.

He chats about the Hanse Cronje scandal that rocked the team, and the lessons he learned during his career about success, life, balance and purpose. Gary speaks freely about his marriage and the costs that often accompany fame and celebrity status.

The time Gary spent in India coaching the Indian team to World Cup victory, and the lessons learned during that time are equally powerful.

It is a frank, honest, and insightful conversation with a humble and authentic purpose-driven human who hates the term 'results'.

Listen in and learn why.
