Angelika Love's Conversations – Details, episodes & analysis

In this episode, social psychologist Angelika Love speaks to four athletes-turned-coaches about building high-performing teams and developing the next generation of team players: 

• Tim Murdy (former Rugby Canada International player),
• Julie Platt (former Olympian rower),
• Jeff Williams (former Rugby Canada International player),
• and Carly Haggard (former NCAA All-American Ice Hokey player). 

Together with Angelika, her guests explore what their international sporting and coaching careers have taught them about setting teams up for success in highly competitive environments -- lessons on coachability, self-awareness and vulnerability that translate across disciplines and might enrich our thinking on teams everywhere.
