Dr Kerry Spackman has spent much of his career trying to answer one simple question: what separates the very best from everybody else?
He’s a neuroscientist, mathematician, author and performance consultant who has worked inside the Formula One, with the All Blacks, Olympic athletes and some of the highest performers in the world.
He wrote a book called The Winners Bible which sold out and became a best seller after Dan Carter endorsed it. And he has a new book out now called The Winners Formula.
In this conversation we get into what Kerry learned from organizations like McClaren and the All Blacks.
What he learned from people like Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher.
Why champions work differently, what causes people to choke under pressure, and why simply “working hard” isn’t enough.

I had a chat with a Generate KiwiSaver adviser when they came on as sponsor, and it genuinely gave me clarity on what it means to have a KiwiSaver plan, and whether mine was actually set up to perform over the long-term.
