Episode 15: Sustainable human performance - lessons from sports for the business world, with Jack Groppel

“A lot of people think that sport is a nice analogy. It’s really an outstanding analogy. World-class athletes have natural breaks in their schedule. Corporate athletes don’t. I mean, look at the HR data on executives taking vacations. They don’t do it. And if they do, they keep working. So there’s no downtime. And then when you do have downtime, what are you doing with that downtime?''

In this 15th episode of the Sustainable Human Podcast, our host Linda Jarnhamn talks to Jack Groppel, a world-renowned expert in human performance, co-founder of the Human Performance Institute, and a pioneer in applying the science of sports training to the business world. 

Together they will explore questions around:

  1. The birth of the Corporate Athlete and energy management
  2. The importance of understanding the concept of periodisation
  3. Sustainable human performance as a business imperative
