Master your peak performance like an Olympic athlete

Newsletter, 1 August 2024


Welcome (back)! We're excited to have you join us on this journey towards creating thriving ecosystems – vibrant, interconnected environments where individuals, teams, and organisations can flourish. In this issue, we'll delve into the often-overlooked power of fear, exploring how leaders can harness it as a catalyst for personal and professional growth.


Thrive under pressure: The art and science of personal energy management

I’ve been enjoying all the action from the 2024 Paris Olympic Games and inspired by the incredible performances and showcase of human potential, reminding us that achieving greatness requires more than talent alone. Elite athletes master the delicate balance of peak performance, energy management, and recovery.


Just like these athletes, you face your own challenges – demanding deadlines, high-pressure situations, and the constant push for peak performance. Are you thriving under pressure, or merely surviving the relentless cycle of hustle and burnout?


My colleague Rebecca Niebler and I have witnessed firsthand how this cycle takes a toll. We are excited bring you our new virtual program, designed to help you unlock sustainable success and well-being, inspired by the world of elite sports.


This program is your playbook for mastering peak performance when it matters. You will:

  • Uncover your personal energy blueprint: Just as athletes understand their unique strengths and weaknesses, you’ll learn to identify your energy sources and drains.

  • Optimise your energy for peak performance: We’ll reveal the strategies used by top performers to channel their energy effectively.

  • Build resilience like a champion: Discover the mental and physical techniques that help athletes bounce back from setbacks – and apply them to your own life.


Registrations will open next Friday but you have exclusive early access for the the 5 week virtual program commencing in October.
