Designing Momentum Capgemini

This season of Designing Momentum we look at the world of sport to see what business can learn from players and entrepreneurs that aren’t afraid to go against the grain to succeed, and examine how the sports industry is adapting to revolutions in technology and changing consumer habits.

In part one of this three-part series join International Women's Rugby World Cup Winner Rachael Burford and Gemma Godfrey on how to stay focused when confronted with a series of split-second decisions on the pitch and in business.

There are thousands of different invisible factors we have to take into account to make sure we create a level playing field for everyone every day. Whether its unconscious bias or systemic imprints, building an inclusive structure will always take more attention than you may expect on the surface.

This episode we unlock the secret abilities that might be hiding within your team, and how together with previously quiet voices you can forge a new approach that you never even imagined was possible.

When we started making this show we had no idea a global pandemic would turn the sports and business industries upside down. So in our final episode of season one, we dig deep to find out just what it takes to come back from a crisis.

Whether it be recovering from a career shaking injury or having the ground fall out from your day to day, we've got the tactics to get you back on track that might give you a new perspective on how to think about your work.
