Take an Olympic final or the final 16 teams heading towards the National Championships, you’ll find their physical and technical preparation is largely comparable. So, what sets the ultimate winner apart? Or, even before then, what differentiated these finalists from those they contested to get there? We’re yet to hear anyone attribute success to their equipment or their training program. Most often at the elite level, success is attributed to the ‘intangibles’. It’s team chemistry, strong leadership, effective communication, high standards of behavior demanded and maintained, and a persistent drive towards a common goal, that sets the best apart.

Focusing on these critical elements is not just for aspiring teams. All of the most successful teams, with the most experienced coaches, continually search for the most effective ways to address the intangibles.

In this workshop, your presenter who has worked with over 700 elite sports teams, will share with you a behind the scenes look at how he works with teams to drive performance. Think of it as the People Playbook, the how-to on performance through people, the fundamentals to get right.

The key learning objectives for session participants are:

  • Discover the most effective strategies to build your team.
  • Learn what factors differentiate the best teams compared to their competition.
  • Develop a strategy to audit your program and identify gains to make.

Your presenter, Bo Hanson, has been working within sport and the business sector for over 15 years, delivering leadership, management and coach development. In addition to his own athletic career, comprising of four Olympics and including three Olympic medals, he has worked for many years with coaches and athletes from over 40 different sports and various countries, to improve coaching strategies and performance.
