Check out previous episodes at thecoachsbackpack.com More about MindflickAt Mindflick, we combine our experience in high-performance sport with cutting-edge research, design thinking, and the latest technology to help you and your people to manage and succeed in an increasingly complex modern world. From healthcare to banking, and sport to education, our experience has taught us that psychological adaptability is crucial to success across contexts, helping us to develop meaningful relationships, effective leadership, and higher levels of collaboration - all of which ultimately lead to higher levels of performance and wellbeing across individuals, teams, and organisations. So we don't cheat the craft, my research hones in on this concept of psychological adaptability and what it can do for us in a whole host of different contexts. What is it? How might me benefit from it? How can we go about developing it? What can it do? By taking the answers to these questions, we then distil them down into frameworks and tools for you and your team to apply to your everyday. With the values of humility, curiosity, and tolerance at their heart, our simple tools and messages, combined with individual and team coaching, help you and your team to develop the characteristics needed to consistently perform and thrive in an increasingly messy world as you work towards both your individual and collective goals.
