Change society by changing people's perceptions and understandings of the games they play.”This episode is from our archive.

We've heard the acronym DEIBJ a lot on campus, especially in the past few years. For those who might not know, it stands for diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging and justice. A growing number of people at UC Berkeley have positions dedicated solely to this incredibly important work.But sometimes it's hard to know exactly what DEIBJ means, what it actually looks like in practice — now, in our day-to-day lives, but also in the future, when initiatives and policies and other on-the-ground work has transformed our institution.So, we talked with Ty-Ron Douglas. He's the associate athletic director of diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging and justice at Cal Athletics. Douglas, who joined Berkeley two years ago, explained the nuts and bolts of DEIBJ in his upbeat and clear-eyed way that he seems to apply to all things he does.He also talked about growing up in Bermuda, a precocious kid feeling like he didn't belong; why sport is a legitimate academic discipline; and how "justice is the juice" of DEIBJ."For us, for me, I really see this work as life and death," says Douglas. "Not just of human life or death, but also of potential, of that glow in a person's eyes when they know that they belong. You can see it, you can feel it. Belonging has a feeling, and you can feel the healthy space."Listen to the episode and read a transcript on news.berkeley.edu.Music by Blue Dot Sessions.Photo courtesy of Ty-Ron Douglas.

Have you ever held yourself back from airing out a grievance to a team member or leader? Have you ever kept yourself from giving something your 100%, or reprimanded yourself too hard for a simple mistake?   The fear of making mistakes is one of the main problems that holds us back from achieving our full potential. It makes us more passive, lose confidence, or become perfectionists to the point of being too hard on ourselves.  Our guest today provides concrete tools to help us be more self-aware of having this fear and how to navigate through it to authenticity and optimization.   In this episode, you will hear from Dr. Graig Chow, a Certified Mental Performance Consultant and the Director of Mental Performance & Leadership Development at Cal Athletics. His portfolio of expertise is nothing short of impressive, broadly focusing on the optimization of mindset, mental skills, performance, involvement, enjoyment, culture, team dynamics, and leadership in sport and other performance domains. At Cal Athletics, he provides comprehensive sport and performance psychology services to student-athletes, teams, and coaches. In his private practice, he works with professional athletes and C-level business professionals, by providing valuable mental consultation and coaching to optimize the individual's mindset into peak performance.  Key Points:  The fear of making mistakes keeps an individual from reaching their full potential. Authenticity creates opportunities for development and performance optimization. Tools that promote self-awareness, self-compassion, and acceptance mitigate the fear of failure and improve focus.  Episode Highlights  [00:00] Introduction  [02:43] Dr. Graig Chow and his background and work  [07:39] How Dr. Graig Chow started in sports psychology  [11:18] His sports psychology work being the blending of two passions  [14:34] How cultivating team culture creates better teams  [16:10] Switching from education and into the application of his studies  [21:20] How supporting athletes drives and challenges Dr. Graig Chow  [27:39] On having the core value of commitment and accepting challenges   [30:47] On the fear of pushback affecting athlete identity and application of their personal skillset  [33:22] Why self-handicapping as a coping mechanism for failure mitigates accurate feedback on athlete performance  [39:20] On being a scientist-practitioner, and his research on maladaptive perfectionism  [45:28] Better and more sustainable techniques for motivation and building mental game  [49:46] Frameworks of self-awareness, acceptance, and refocus and how they help develop an individual's performance  [56:21] On maintaining balance and focus on performance when it matters as found in professionals in both sport and business, and how forming routines help develop that focus.  [1:02:43] Having intentions and how it sets a foundation for: (1) consistency and focus, and (2) performing to your identity  [1:06:35] On developing a balance of not being too attached to results while remaining focused on achieving results without becoming lax   [1:12:54] Dr. Graig Chow's chosen medium of staying up-to-date on data that directly impacts his evidence-based research  [1:15:43] Dr. Graig Chow's one-book recommendation: Atomic Habits by James Clear  Resources Mentioned:  Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones  Help us grow by leaving a rating or review on Apple Podcast  – here's how  To learn more about how you can take your leadership to the next level, check out HigherEchelon service offerings: Resilient and Adaptable Leadership, Executive Coaching, and Change Management.  Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

Our preview of Cal men's and women's hoops against the Washington schools, along with quick hits on gymnastics, rugby, and the Cal Athletic Department's 2019 agenda.

UC Berkeley will spend $30 million on building new softball and beach volleyball teams. While Title IX is widely understood to be a sports equity law, its historical advancement of feminist interests and its application at Cal today reveal a more ambitious and inclusive agenda. Not merely a mechanism for intercollegiate sports, Title IX advocates for building holistic inclusive collegiate experiences and making that ethos integral to the operations and strategy of the university. Goldman MPP ‘20 Spencer Bowen talks with Meagan Owusu, Head Beach Volleyball Coach at Cal and campus directors Denise Oldham and Jenny Simon O'Neal of Cal Athletics and Title IX programs to discover why Title IX is a flash point that opens opportunities, but also underscores the societal role of universities to foster the personal and professional growth in its students.

Roxy Bernstein, play-by-play announcer for ESPN and the Pac-12 Networks, is also a Cal graduate who's passionate about Golden Bear sports. We discussed the state of the athletic program, with particular attention paid to athletic director Mike Williams, the debt and facility issues, football coach Justin Wilcox and basketball coach Wyking Jones.  

Where does Chip Kelly fall on Cal's wish list? Who would be the dream team for athletic director Mike Williams and the Cal fan base? Who are the frontrunners to replace Sonny Dykes, and why would they be the ones to lift Cal Athletics out of a financial quagmire? Jon Doss and Ryan Gorcey discuss.

Hundreds of Berkeley's international students showed up at Memorial Stadium Saturday for a training camp especially designed for them: "American Football 101." The one-hour Student Orientation event, hosted by the Berkeley International Office and Cal Athletics, offered the students instruction and practice in football drills led by Golden Bear players. The one-hour training is intended as a fun way to familiarize students with a sport that most of them have had little or no exposure to, growing up in foreign countries. Saturday's practice drills included punting, passing, receiving, blocking, sprinting, goal-kicking, and a lot of positive reinforcement from the player "coaches."
