Aksel Lund Svindal: many consider him the best Norwegian alpine skier ever. During his career, he won nine World Championship medals, four Olympic medals, two overall World Cup and nine discipline titles. He now focuses his attention on new ventures; he is a keen start-up investor, has launched a sustainable clothing brand and is writing a book. He shares the parallels between top sports and business and teamwork. He translates risk-taking into a business where leaders should manage risk according to inevitable setbacks.
