Busy Isn’t the Problem: Why Most Leaders Have a Priority Problem

April 2, 2026

What if the real issue in your business isn’t that you're busy… it's that you're focused on the wrong things?

In this special live episode of the Marketing 4 Business Podcast, Scott sits down with high-performance coach and author James Laughlin during a recent Digital Influence Leadership Live Client Breakfast in Christchurch.

James has worked with world champions, global leaders, elite athletes, and high-performing organisations. In this conversation, he shares practical lessons on leadership, culture, priorities, and performance, including insights from coaching teams in some of the most extreme environments on Earth.

From helping teams prepare for nine months of isolation in Antarctica to working with elite athletes chasing world titles, James has seen firsthand what separates high performers from everyone else.

If you’re a business owner, leader, or entrepreneur trying to build a better team while managing the demands of growth, this episode is packed with practical ideas you can apply immediately.
