George TALK: Reaching Sustainable High Performance



Wintergarden & Live Stream
Fully booked

Want to learn how to live better and unleash your true potential? Sign up for the very first George TALK!


What are George TALKS?

Hotel St. George is the first hotel in the Nordic countries to combine full-service luxury with a holistic approach to health and well-being.

To celebrate this, we’re launching the George TALKS. 

These regular events will host top speakers from across the globe who’ll discuss topics ranging from wellbeing to literature, design and the arts.

These talks will take place in our Wintergarden, but they’ll also be live streamed on Hotel St. George's Facebook.

James Hewitt: Reaching sustainable high performance 

Imagine if your current performance only represented a fraction of your true potential?

In our inaugural George TALK, at 5:30 p.m. on 20 March, James Hewitt, Chief Innovation Officer for Hintsa Performance, will discuss how to focus your time and energy on the things that matter most.

Hintsa Performance is the world leader in human high performance coaching. The company has supported Formula 1 drivers and top executives for over 20 years with measurable results. 

What will I learn?

James’s work involves collaborating with Formula 1 teams, advising executives, and creating new well-being techniques for some of the world’s most demanding organisations.

In his keynote, you’ll hear fascinating insights and personal stories on how you can achieve high performance without burning out in the process.

Wintergarden is the living room of the Hotel St. George, place for the guests and locals to meet.
