What Athletes SayWhat Businesses SayWhat Leaders Say
There are so many skills that you develop in sports, that are applicable to so many industries and actually those industries are calling out for it. Businesses are looking for a different skillset
Kelly Davies, UK Director of Ashoka Everyone a Changemaker and Cymru Football Foundation Chair
Not everybody has those skills and behaviors. High performance behaviours are high performance – They aren’t just high performance in sport behaviours
Craig Anthony – CEO British Wrestling
You have to have one eye on it (career transition). I have been super lucky in the sense of having the 15-year career, coming to an end with good health intact.
Whereas some guys who I played with only got to their early 20s before a horrible injury has caused a complete change, which was definitely not expected. It’s always something any athlete needs to keep an eye on throughout their career
Rob Miller – Newcastle, Sale, Wasps
The space Second Peak Performance are working in, it terms of the transition piece is both warranted and needed! We have seen time and time again people struggle with transition. Transition means something different for everybody and will look completely different to every individual
James Parkes – Saracens, Leeds, Gloucester. Founder of the MyDay App
Whilst I am still a professional Athlete, I am getting prepared for a smooth transition into a career in Sales. Second Peak Performance support me by being someone to discuss ideas with and offer practical support.
Robin Hislop – Saracens and Scotland
Working with Second Peak Performance allowed me to have important conversations around transition and what life can look like after sport. Transitioning into a different world is daunting, so it’s great to meet people who are passionate about offering support
