Reigning Olympic 100m champion Noah Lyles and four-time Olympic champion Michael Johnson sit down with Leaders’ Editorial Director James Emmett in Cannes to discuss how track and field is being - and should be - disrupted.
Lyles, who claimed gold in the blue riband event at Paris 2024, discusses his deliberate approach to personal brand-building, and what he likes and doesn’t like about the current structure of the sport.
Then Johnson opens up about the successes and challenges he encountered launching Grand Slam Track, the new series he founded earlier this year, a week after the announcement that season one would end prematurely with one event to go. He also reflects on his own approach to leadership, raising money and team building.
