Eyes on the Prize: Chris Boardman Makes Problem Solving Personal
Fri Feb 06 2026
In this episode of the Blue Earth Podcast, Will Hayler sits down with Chris Boardman to explore what elite sport can teach founders about building real, scalable change. From Olympic cycling to transport policy and system-wide problem solving, Chris shares why progress doesn’t come from sacrifice or virtue alone, it comes from competitive edge. Together they unpack why people change when solutions are materially better, how belief is built through clear pathways, and why framing the prize matters more than repeating the problem. A conversation about performance, behaviour, and designing solutions that actually win, in business, policy and the future economy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
