Multi-million selling Singer Songwriter Dr Glenn Medeiros on Human Risk in the Music Industry

On this episode, I'm exploring an industry whose product we all sample daily, but probably don't fully understand: music. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, my guest, Dr Glenn Medeiros, was a global pop star with several hit records, including Nothings Gonna Change My Love For You. Perhaps surprisingly given that start, he's now the CEO and President of Saint Louis School in Honolulu, Hawaii.

In our discussion, we explore his experiences in the music industry and the lessons he's learned from it. Rest assured there's plenty of Human Risk there! We also look at how Glenn transitioned from music to education and what he's learned along the way.

This is a fascinating, frank exploration of what it is like to be propelled to global stardom and then building a second career. Glenn is also fabulous company and has some lovely anecdotes to share. Whether you remember him as an artist or have never heard of him before, what he has to say is highly insightful.
