Five Lessons from Olympic Coaches for Leaders
In Igniting the Third Factor, Dr. Peter Jensen distills 20 years of work with one foot in the boardroom and the other in the locker room. Over 90 minutes, managers learn how to use the five core practices of exceptional Olympic coaches to motivate, engage and develop their employees.
Far from a dispassionate, academic look at leadership, Igniting the Third Factor is a fast-paced journey packed with familiar faces and gripping storylines. As Peter moves from the dressing room to the corner office and back again, he discovers leadership lessons in some unique places - but always reinforces them with examples that everyone can relate to in their day-to-day.
It's a speech that only Peter could give - delivered the way only he can.
The Five Essentials for Igniting the Third Factor
Peter brings the impact and application of the five essentials to Igniting the Third Factor to life through lively stories and relevant examples.
- Manage Yourself - Great coaches are mentally fit. They are extremely effective when under pressure because they consciously work on self-awareness and self-control.
- Build Trust - Trust leads to commitment, and committed people outperform. Learn the importance of starting from a position of trust.
- Use and Encourage Imagery - Nothing blocks potential like a lack of imagination. Effective leaders help people ‘see' what is possible.
- Uncover and Work Through Blocks - Good coaches don't block a block with a block. It's critical to find out what's in the way, focus on that and work to remove it.
- Embrace Adversity - Adversity can be the best teacher. Actively managing hardship is key to a leader's success.
Peter leaves participants energized with a solid understanding of leadership fundamentals and an eagerness to become better leaders themselves.
