In this episode, Ashurst Partner Cameron Smith is joined by James Harayda, skipper and team principle at the Gentoo Sailing team.

Businesses need to be able to adapt in the ever changing political and economic climate, law firms with regulatory changes, clients' evolving needs and risk changes. Failing to adapt brings a whole host of challenges and the same can be said for the world's top sport professionals.

As a solo offshore yacht racer, James is the navigator, tactician, helmsman, crew, sail maker, electrician, rigger and hydraulics expert. He discusses how he prepares for each race and the importance of adapting throughout it.

James also considers what parallels businesses can learn from offshore sailing.
