Episode 68 - Chris McCormack, CEO, Mana Sports & Events Group - a podcast by Mass Participation World

We start this week at The Aid Station in Sydney talking to Chris  McCormack, Chief Executive, Mana Sports & Events Group whose  projects include Super League Triathlon.



'Macca' shares a reminder of the power of sport and our industry to  inspire generations as he tells how, as a 10 year old boy, watching  Sebastian Coe overcome adversity to win gold at the LA Olympics inspired  him to take up running. It launched a journey that took him to two  IRONMAN and a Triathlon World Championship.



The journey  continues with creating commercial ventures in the industry albeit  heavily curtailed by COVID-19. He was due to travel to Rotterdam next  month to be at the inaugural SLT Arena event - a mix of virtual and real  racing but travel restrictions make that unlikely.



Listen for  his frank and open comments about what he has learnt about himself and  his management style as well as the challenges of closing down the  Singapore office.
