Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D., Creator & Guide | Mayo Clinic Human Optimization Project

Guest: Pablo Lopez, Professional Baseball Pitcher | Minnesota Twins Baseball Club

If you’ve ever been a part of a team, group, organization, or family, it’s obvious that much of your progress, success, and happiness in heavily influenced by the people around you. This can be a major blessing if you are surrounded by the right kind of people. But if you aren’t, it can be a major challenge and roadblock to success. One of critical elements to ensure success of the group is having the ability to appropriately motivate those around you. This is a critical element to group success, but it isn’t easy. That’s what we are going to focus on in this session as we sit down with Major League Baseball player, Pablo Lopez. The three big questions are working through with Pablo are: 1. What does it really mean to motivate others, and why does it matter? 2. Why do most people struggle to effectively motivate their peers, and what common challenges keep us from inspiring others? 3. What practical steps can the average person take to become better at motivating those around them?
