Episode Synopsis
I'm your host and coaching teammate, Shauna Griffiths, and I'm grateful to bring you another conversation with an impactful leader. This edition features Greg Merrill, a 3x company founder turned Nike corporate executive and board member - and 3x Girl Dad!
Greg has extensive experience supporting and guiding companies and executives through business challenges. He is sought after for his unique blend of experience growing and digitally transforming public and private companies across a range of industries, including brand & retail, luxury fashion, sport, footwear & apparel, technology, health & fitness, and sustainability.
His 20+ year journey has taken him from the health and fitness industry to 3x company founder, to corporate executive at Nike, to now advising executives and boards on company growth and transformation. Greg coaches and advises Family Offices, UHNWIs, and Athletes & Musicians on leveraging their brand and platform to build successful business ventures.
His authenticity and infectious energy come through from the very moment you press play. I promised I would keep the intro blooper in and I'm a person of my word!
Greg leads with heart, while winning at business, and elevating others along the way. I walked away from our recording session feeling inspired and impacted and I know you will too.
