S2 E2 - Ceri Davies: Nature via Nurture


Listen Later

This week we are joined by Ceri Davies.

Ceri is internationally capped in 2 different sports, representing 3 different nations; Wales, Scotland and Australia.

She started her academic career as a neuropsychologist, sport scientist and high-performance coach where she was heavily involved with pathway development and ‘talent’ identification.

Some of Ceri’s peers include the likes of Carol Dweck (‘Mindset’) and Anders Ericsson (whose research was the basis of the 10,000 hours of ‘deliberate practice’ theory). Ceri has always chosen to work on the front line with athletes and people in the pursuit of pushing human potential to it’s limits.

Now, Ceri works as a high performance consultant in a number of industries including:

- Hi-tech engineering projects including aerospace
- Sport
- Performance Profiling including ‘Talent’ identification and ‘Talent’ selection
- Politics
- Finance


Ceri is truly ‘World Class’ in her field and it was a truly fascinating and rewarding experience to have her on the show. Enjoy!!
