In this episode of Championship Leadership, we interview Liam Martin, Speaker, Author, Co- Founder of Time Doctor and Staff.com, and Co-organizer of Running Remote Conference. He will tell his story of being a pair skater that almost got him into the Olympics until an unfortunate tragedy struck him, forcing him to discontinue his lifelong dream of joining in Olympics. Undeterred by adversity, Liam persistently still managed to get into grad school and is now an accomplished Founder, Marketer, and advocate of Remote Work.
Today, Liam is greatly involved in helping the world’s transition towards remote work to free people from time and space and all the while allowing to form autonomy that can scale your business.
