Specialization – Talent ID & Talent Development

This week on Krush Performance, we continue to look at talent development and Helping Kids Perform.

People are constantly looking for ways to give their kids an edge but are we taking it too far? Is it right to hold your kids back in school to gain an advantage in sport? Is it a good move for your young athlete?

Dr. Joe Baker of York University joins us to discuss Talent identification, the changing roll of parents in development and the secrets of deliberate practice.

Join us as we continue our investigation into Talent Development.
