Florian Munteanu: why I make the effort to understand someone’s mindset
I recently had a fascinating mindset interview with actor Florian Munteanu, linked below. I wanted to understand how someone from Germany succeeds in Hollywood. Florian knows first-hand.
The work involved was considerable: coordinating with Frandly PR, arranging an advance viewing of Shang-Chi with Disney Germany, organising my cameraman, travelling to Munich, staying overnight and interviewing Florian at the Bayerischer Hof the next day.
I gladly accepted that effort to understand how he approaches his goals.
It was worth it. I think few things teach you faster than listening. Practice matters too, of course, but listening can provide useful pointers about mistakes to avoid.
I summarised the trip visually in the short Instagram video linked below.
