There are many similarities between world-class athletes and top business executives. They are competitive, they are willing to work hard to be successful, they are constantly trying to improve their teams, and they always look for a competitive edge. Hence, many of the metaphors used in the boardroom are derived from sports.
Using examples from his specialized experience working with the world’s best athletes, Dr. Morag offers a fascinating presentation of lessons about excellence that are inspired by athletes, embedded in science and applied to successful business initiatives.
This talk can be complemented by a 45 minutes breakout session during which participants are invited to experience a sport science activity followed by a business implementation exercise.
This talk is inspired by great athletes that play ‘bigger than their size’, such as Carles Puyol and Troy Palamalu, among others. In his talk, Dr. Morag describes what are the key factors that will allow your team or company to ‘play bigger than it’s size’ in order to compete successfully in the marketplace.
Just as athletes in the world of sport have become faster and more competitive, so has the world of business. Dr. Morag takes a truly global perspective on how to be faster and more competitive in the international marketplace through innovation, training, and a continual focus on improvement. He demonstrates how principles in speed training can be applied to business innovation.
By learning to think about speed as a system, your audience comes away with new ideas about how to improve the speed and quality of innovation within your company or organization. Like relay runners, your team is capable of more than the individual speed of its members. Dr. Morag explains how speed of thought, speed of decision-making, speed of ideation, and speed to the market will enable your team to effectively “pass the baton” at top speed, increasing the overall performance and potential of new products and innovations.
