What sets apart an effective, efficient and successful high performance team in sport? Smart protocols, for sure. There’s plenty to be said about useful technology, too. But the overriding factor is the individuals who come together in service of the athletes.
“Our goal is to put the athlete in the centre and then we fit the jigsaw pieces around them,” says Simon Rice of the Philadelphia 76ers.
This universal goal has long inspired Teamworks’ efforts to support high performance teams in their delivery of personalised and unified support to athletes. We understand that because the jigsaw pieces often move, practitioners must be able to see the complete picture in real time as they make high-stakes decisions.
High Performance Unpacked delivers a snapshot of that world through the eyes of the specialists who grace this Special Report.
Beyond the NBA, we hear from the worlds of the English Premier League, NFL, WNBA, motorsport, Olympic and Paralympic sports and others.
We explore how high performance roles and structures are evolving; tackle the question of scalability, which often comes down to the ability of interdisciplinary teams to elevate the collective and surmount the growing complexity of high performance environments; we then shift the focus to athlete care and ponder where the balance needs to sit between challenge and support while asking how tech can be best leveraged to meet the athlete’s needs; lastly, we ask how tech and data set the stage for the innovations that deliver efficient and effective high performance programmes.
