  • Sarah Ayton OBE | The Olympic Mindset: Applying Championship Strategies to Leadership

    Tune into this inspiring episode of Helping Organisations Thrive where we are joined by two times sailing Olympic champion, Sarah Ayton, as we explore her sailing career, in the context of leadership.

    Sarah shares her sailing story, from where it all started at 6 years old, to the ups and downs along the way to two Olympic Games. Throughout this fascinating exploration of Sarah’s story, we touch on the challenges that come with working with others that have more experience than yourself, and Sarah shares how placing herself in an uncomfortable position, and amongst people with different ‘super strengths’, was the key to her growth. We delve into the emotions of winning and losing, as well as dealing with a team mate who made a mistake. Sarah discusses effective strategies to navigate these feelings and challenges, and explains how to translate these strategies into your leadership style.

  • Aftab Erfan | Beyond Conflict: Leveraging Polarisation for Team Strength and Adaptability
