2/2 Rise of The Anti-Hero: Gabriel Napora

We may not have considered how the stories will tell ourselves, and others determine who our people show up as. Let me give you a couple of examples. In 1974, I saw Bruce Lee in a movie called, Enter the Dragon, and as a result, I and millions of other kids took up martial arts. Who among us hasn't watched a high-speed chase movie at the cinema and then drove home afterward with a somewhat different style? 

The stories we tell ourselves and the stories we are told impact and influence us. Have you considered that, as a leader, the stories you are allowing to impact you and those you lead? That's just a taste of where we're going on our next couple of episodes. 

Our guest is Gabriel Napora, an international, award-winning film producer and financier. Gabriel’s films have won the most significant film festivals in the world, including Toronto International Film Festival and Sundance Film Festival. He's had the most critically acclaimed film of 2020, and the top documentary in the world in April of 2021, and Gabriel is currently producing a slate of films with some of Hollywood's top stars, such as Leonardo DiCaprio, The Rock, and Jordan Peterson. 

Gabriel’s movie, Skin, won the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival. The Kindergarten Teacher won the Top Director Award at The Sundance Film Festival out of 15,000 submissions, and Bisping became the world's top documentary for two weeks in 2022. Having executive produced with names like Leonardo DiCaprio, The Rock, and Jordan Peterson, Gabriel is committed to working on socially relevant films and documentaries that make people think.
