You don't have to be an Olympian to win at business, but it definitely helps.

This episode is for you if you want to learn what it takes to have the discipline and mindset of an Olympic champion. During this conversation, things get real when the lads chat with Commercial Group's Simone Hindmarch.

Simone set up the £60m organisation with her brother Arthur back in 1991. 

They provide the stuff that helps businesses run smoothly. This can be pens and paper or even the design of your walls. 

We were absolutely desperate to learn the story of how Simone came to head up this incredible team of people, having started out as a internationally renowned swimmer who represented her country.

There's a lot to admire about the way Commercial do things. There's a great deal they're aligned with us on.
