What’s the secret to performing at your best? With Laura Kenny CBE and Joanna Lockard

Many of us can relate to taking pride in performing to the highest level we’re capable of. Writing the best essay we can at school. Running that 5k in the park against the clock every Saturday. Nailing our first 100 days in the new job, even if we’re still learning. Doing the best we can – every single day.   But what does it take to be the best you can be? And perhaps more importantly, how do you do it consistently?   Sport and business. There’s been no shortage of comparisons between the two over the years – think ‘winning as a team’ or ‘crushing the competition’. But if we really want to understand what it takes to ‘win at business’, chances are we’ll need to look a little deeper.   Tune in to find out:   Who listens to ‘This is me’ to get pumped? The reasons Joanna thinks people in business should rest like athletes How to cope with pressure and deal with the inevitable setbacks Why getting a dog might just be the answer to anything?   Enjoyed the episode?
