It\u2019s a topic we\u2019re taking incredibly seriously, and it was great to see you all do the same when conversing with one another off the back of some superb insight from Cecilia Clark from the Cleveland Indians, alongside Ben Freakley and Angus Mugford from the Toronto Blue Jays.<\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Key Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Often we look at the bringing in a mental performance coach when an issue arises. However, there should be work done way before that. How can prepare people to that the problem never occurs, or they\u2019re better equipped to deal with it?<br \/>\n\u2022 For a lot of these young athletes, it\u2019s the first time they\u2019e experienced failure. That\u2019s a huge consideration.<br \/>\n\u2022 From how the coaches and front office react, and the environment that they create, that will determine how well these young athletes will deal with it. They\u2019re really questioning who they are at this point.<br \/>\n\u2022 Are you creating an environment to nurture trust between everyone?<br \/>\n\u2022 As a leader, are you vulnerable often? If you show vulnerability it\u2019s not showing a weakness, it is in fact highlighting a strength.<br \/>\n\u2022 Empowerment and psychological wellbeing go hand in hand. People care way more when they know that you care.<br \/>\n\u2022 Is there such a thing as too much psychological safety? The culture needs to be introduced and coached, and the language that is used through this process is integral.<br \/>\n\u2022 It\u2019s important to find a balance when creating a psychologically safe culture \u2013 be comfortable, but not too comfortable.<br \/>\n\u2022 Having a tight-nit group will allow you to take more risk is as a group. It will also nurture empowerment and share when you are fragile and vulnerable.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n                            \n                            \n                            \n                                                    <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"col visibly-hidden col--flex-align-right\">\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fourth Summit Session of day two of the 2018 Leaders Sport Performance Summit at Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2640,"menu_order":0,"template":"","categories":[21,33],"pathway":[],"topic":[],"sport":[],"class_list":["post-2639","vlog","type-vlog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-human-performance","category-summit-session"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
