Max has lived in 12 countries, has managed several businesses including some of 400+ employees, has written two books, is a Forbes “30under30”, has been an officer of French army and, most recently, has co-founded Upworth which has already raised $1m capital investment for growth.
Maxime’s definition of success is deeply imbedded in three pillars. In this conversation, we dive deep into these three pillars of humanism and how to measure & track your progress.
"Success is about being able to think like an artist and have the ruthless discipline of a soldier."
Because, what we can’t measure, we can’t improve.
And what we can’t improve, we can never master.
"The first phase in problem solving is being open and creative, while the second phase is implementing the solution with discipline."
Enjoy!
