Summary

This is episode 1,110 of the Arete Coach Podcast with Severin Sorensen and his guest Bill Clark, who is an Executive Coach, Master Coach, and CEO of Clark Leadership Group. The theme of this episode is “learning from life’s curriculum.’

This interview was recorded on October 16, 2020 via Zoom Video

In this podcast we explore what Bill Clark describes as ‘learning lessons from life’s curriculum.’ Bill is a disruptor, innovator, and executive coaching peer who I esteem highly. The podcast begins with Bill talking about his experience sailing around the world and what he learned in the silence. What's also unusual about Bill is that he is not the typical scholar or industrial psychologist you often see in executive coaching positions. Rather Bill struggled in school, worked his way up from an employee of a laundromat to later buying that company with the mentoring of his uncle. Bill's coaching journey was made possible by his entrepreneurship spirit, building, buying, and selling eight companies. He shares his ups and his downs in an authentic conversation that was most memorable and touching. As a coach, he has helped companies and their leaders grow their businesses from the low millions to over $400 million. Bill is a lifetime learner that has been through his own school of hard knocks and now he helps others learn, grow, and achieve their potential. This was a special interview and certainly one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did as Bill relays is pure wisdom about life, learning, and leaning into life’s curriculum to become your best self.
