Dr Weil’s is an organizational consultant, executive coach, educator and psychologist. For the past 35 years, he has provided guidance and support to senior executives, family businesses, and for-profit and non-profit organizations in the areas of values-based leadership and organizational culture, innovation, team building, strategic planning, conflict resolution and executive wellness. Gunther is 82 years of age,  and feels that he is just reaching the “Top of his game”. Many people in their 50’s or even 70's feel that their best years are behind them……… well, Dr Weil’s questions that belief. In this episode we discuss:

  • Finding meaning and purpose in one's work, regardless of age
  • What values are
  • How values can be empirically measured and why that’s important for individuals, families and businesses.
  • How values are translated into specific action, making those actions meaningful.
  • What Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffett and Bill Gates might have in common - apart from their wealth.
  • What the “affliction of wealth” is - requests for handouts -  and how to deal with that.
  • Holding our stories about ourselves and others,  lightly, or better yet, don't believe them at all.
