coronavirus-enforced shutdown better than most sports organisations.<\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&#8220;As a team, we don&#8217;t have a facility base,&#8221; the INEOS Team Principal begins in explanation. &#8220;We go to a race, we work together, and then we have to work very much geographically dispersed; a lot of the time it&#8217;s conference calls, Zoom calls &#8211; the way that everyone is working at the minute is familiar to us&#8230; we&#8217;re not racing, but it feels like a ramped-up business-as-usual to us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, Brailsford provided some typically thought-provoking insights during his appearance on At Home With Leaders, where he spoke to co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders\u2019 Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC.<\/p>\n<p>Up for discussion were:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Team INEOS&#8217; three-stage approach to managing its organisation during the pandemic [6:00];<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Brushing off the envy of rivals and fellow competitors [23:00];<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Environmental factors that impact on what he terms the &#8216;discretionary&#8217; aspects of performance [29:00];<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; How his recent illness changed his perspective on work and life [37:00].<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"
