Interested in how athletes deal with pressure when 20 years of training can come down to a 20 second event on the international stage? Or what we can learn from a coach-athlete relationship in order to improve our manager-employee relationship? Or how athletes stay motivated when they know it will take a decade of 5am alarms to reach their goals?

I’ve been #1 in Australia and top 10 in the world in three different sports - Trampolining, CrossFit and Beach Volleyball. In this newsletter, I share the athlete mindset I’ve learnt from elite sport with specific examples on how you can apply it at work to become a world-class leader and operator.

I’m the co-founder of FC32 where we are buying soccer teams around the world with a focus on athlete development. I’m also a Partner at Athletic Ventures, and formerly an investor at Blackbird Ventures.

Thanks for reading!
