Hello. J\u00f3 napot. Shwmae! How are you? Sorry you haven\u2019t heard from us for a few weeks, we were in Cardiff delivering our latest Leaders Meet event. It was a day full of learning, insights and some really great people. Thanks to those of you who came along. More info on the upcoming events here<\/a>.<\/h4>\n

Also, a happy Ramadan to those who are celebrating this month. Worth remembering that many athletes are currently fasting, yet still performing to an elite level \u2013 here is short video from Crystal Palace\u2019s Head of Sports Medicine, Dr Zaf Iqbal<\/a>, exploring what this means for the footballers at the club.<\/p>\n

For now, here\u2019s another collection of news, insights and stories from across high performance. Grab your brew, take a pew and enjoy the view!<\/p>\n

Five questions, answered\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Matt \u2013 is it time to finally align coach and player development?<\/strong><\/p>\n

That was one of the main themes explored at our Leaders Meet: Coach & Player Development event at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, in partnership with our Main Partners Keiser, a couple of weeks ago. Members can read a summary of the key topics discussed throughout the day here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. When is it right to trust your gut instincts?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s more complicated than just following your intuition. Try to get in touch with your emotions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

3. How can leaders overcome resistance to change?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In our latest podcast produced alongside our main partners Keiser, Gareth Bloomfield, who is a psychologist with the Royal Military Academy, explains how neuroscience can help coaches to effect cultural change within their teams<\/a>.<\/p>\n

4. Does every leader need to worry about toxic culture?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes. Here\u2019s why<\/a>.<\/p>\n

5. Is European football\/soccer similar to American football?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Apparently in Italy it is<\/a>, according to AC Milan\u2019s Fikayo Tomori.<\/p>\n

State of the Industry<\/strong><\/p>\n

A lot has changed across our world of sport during the last couple of years, and a lot will be changing in the not too distant future, which means that our friends at SportTechie and Sports Business Journal are hosting their State of the Industry (SOTI) conference at the perfect time. It\u2019s in New York on 12-13 April, and you can find all the info here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Start with \u2018no\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re going through a creative process, consider how adidas\u2019 Creative Director, Andre Doxey<\/a>, approaches it by empowering his team to make bold decisions, and rejecting the status quo.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, though, the best way to come up with new solutions<\/a> is to get them out of our heads, bring them to the table, and let them speak for themselves.<\/p>\n

Time travel<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s still not possible (as far as we know\u2026) but mental time travel is, and it\u2019s a great decision making tool. Here\u2019s how to use it<\/a>.<\/p>\n
