Description

Sébastien Page is the Chief Investment Officer at T. Rowe Price, one of the world’s largest investment management firms. Sebastien oversees a team of investment professionals who manage more than $500 billion in assets, and he rose from a non-English-speaking intern to the C-suite. Sébastien is also the author of the book, The Psychology of Leadership.  


In this episode we discuss the following:



  • For the sports psychologist and 40-time national handball champ Daniel Zimet, his best match ever was a loss.

  • Roger Federer, one of the greatest tennis players of all time, lost nearly half the points in his career.

  • Outcomes are noisy, and are only loose signals of decision quality. True peak performance, whether in sports, investing, or life, isn’t always about winning. It’s about a relentless focus on the process.

  • At the highest levels, listening beats speaking, strategic patience often beats knee-jerk decisiveness, and the courage to quit can matter more than blind persistence.

  • None of this matters if we’re running on empty. The foundation of sustained excellence is sleep, diet, and exercise.
