The Unlock Moment: find your purpose for leadership and life

Dr Gary Crotaz PhD

My name’s Dr Gary Crotaz, I’m an international speaker, an executive coach, and I coined the term The Unlock Moment. An Unlock Moment is that flash of remarkable clarity when you suddenly know the right path ahead. Unlock Moments define us. They teach us about ourselves. And we remember them decades later. In exploring Unlock Moments on this podcast and in my speaking and coaching work, I’ve discovered how we can see ourselves through a new lens, how we can make new and powerful connections, and how

It’s the paradox of the successful. Psychologists call it survivor bias. The people you hear from are the people who were successful. That’s why now they have the platform that means you’re listening to what they say.And what they say is ‘never give up’.Muhammad Ali. ‘Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.’Vince Lombardi. ‘Winners never quit and quitters never win.’Thomas Edison. ‘Our greatest weakness lies in giving up.’But sometimes it might just be true that the gold you're

There is a famous quote by psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl.Between stimulus and response there is a space.In that space is our power to choose our response.In our response lies our growth and our freedom.It epitomises our permission to choose. Permission is a powerful word. Perhaps the most significant Unlock Moment in my own life journey was to give myself the permission to explore a different path.There is power in the permission to act. To choose what happens next. But we need

2023/06/15

I’ve been reflecting a lot on a chapter heading for my forthcoming book on ‘The Unlock Moment’ – alone, with others. It reflects the idea that you are surrounded by people who love you, who support you, who mentor and coach you, who partner with you. And yet in the centre, and I mean this in a good way, you are alone.Alone to own who you are. Alone to own the decisions you make. Alone to own what happens next.Alone, with others. In that moment of clarity it’s just you, your purpose, your strength,

I’ve recently brought another person on to my team, so now we’re three of us working on The Unlock Moment, the podcast, my coaching and speaking work. I’d put off the cost of an additional team member for as long as possible and then, when I realised that I was dropping the ball on important things, I knew I had to bite the bullet and invest in the additional help I needed. And what a good decision that was. With help, I’ve been able to spend more time where I can have most impact.When I was stuck,

Our minds are full of oughts and shoulds. And it’s often other people that put those oughts and shoulds in our head. You ought to have done that better. You should have made a different choice. You failed.It’s paralysing, causing us to spin round in circles chasing something in the past that now we can never go back and change. And it makes us doubt our judgement and turn molehills into mountains.It doesn’t mean we don’t pursue personal learning and growth. Quite the opposite. Freeing our mind of
