Sport & Performance Excellence Consultants works with teams, regardless of domain and level, to develop their capability to consistently perform in the upper range of their knowledge, skills, and abilities regardless of the performance situation. Similar to our work with individuals, we work in team settings to more efficiently help all team members develop their ability to perform under pressure.
Consultations are personalized to the needs of the client, so it is difficult to define a typical consult. All consulting relationships start with an initial session to determine the client’s goals, expectations, and needs. SPEX Consultants also gain great insights from field observation and can be contracted for onsite consultations based on availability.
Sport & Performance Excellence Consultants can be contracted for individual team workshops or season long integrated team performance development.
