Interview with Matt Dawson, MBE: From rugby pitch to boardroom

 
 

Eamon Devlin interviews England rugby legend turned successful businessman, Matt Dawson, MBE. We discuss Matt’s transition from England World Cup-winning scrumhalf to strategic advisor to a number of companies including, Sodexo, the management services company, and Instant Group, the real estate business.

Amongst other things, they tackle:

• How are PE firms changing their real estate needs since COVID?

• Matt’s insights into building and leading successful teams.

• What lessons learned from professional sport can (and cannot) be applied to business?

• How to perform at your best under the most pressure.
