· How do top performers stay motivated?

· How can you motivate the people around you?

And why is there such a gap between what we know about motivation and how businesses, teams and organizations operate?

Talent, our understanding of talent and how we apply it within the developmental pathways, from grassroots right up to our professional, both compels and limits athletic achievement.

Would we be better off ignoring talent all together?

This week, we wrap up our year long investigation into the incredible complexity of talent development and talent ID in sport with Krush Hall of Famer, Sport Scientist, Dr. Joe Baker.

How do genetics and environment influence what we become…how good we become, and I ask the question: “Is Talent Real?”

For athletes, navigating today’s developmental/High Performance pathways is more complicated than ever.

It is mid summer and that means Baseball’s Mid-Summer Classic.

Baseball is a great sport to watch – regardless of what sport you play. There is plenty to learn from watching what is happening in other sports and maybe more so today than at any time in sport.

Times are changing as are the pathways to the elite levels of the game for many reasons.
