It can be so easy to let resentments build and sweep things under the carpet, to avoid having the difficult conversation because you know it will be uncomfortable. But – sweeping issues under the carpet is not a recipe for harmony, whether in business, families, relationships of teams. Issues and feelings need to be faced and processed.

In our Language of Leadership podcast series, we explore the lessons business can take from sport when it comes to leadership. We have analysed the language used by elite individuals in sports and business, and developed six lessons for business leaders to take from sports leaders. In this series, we'll be discussing one lesson per episode with a leading figure in sport. In the final episode of the series, we investigate 'viewing failure as a positive force', looking at how sports leaders view failure and success as complementary to each other and focus on intent, rather than just victory. Broadcaster, Ayo Akinwolere, and Charlie Unwin, a sports performance psychologist, are with Kate and Helen Richardson-Walsh, Commonwealth field hockey medallists with more than five hundred international caps between them.

Katie Warriner is a sports psychologist who has worked with a dazzling array of top sportspeople, including many of my previous guests.From the likes of Headspace Founder Andy Puudicombe through to the legendary Olympic gold medal winning hockey team of 2016 – including Kate and Helen Richardson Walsh, Alex Danson and Danny Kerry – as well as Laurence Halstead of the True Athlete Project. All of them say that Katie is an extraordinary psychologist, and after speaking to her – it is very clear why. The theme of this episode is about – are you coming from a place of love or fear? So, are you trying to achieve 'success' to become somebody special, in other words from a place of fear and lack, or are you doing what you are doing as an expression of love and exploration?We also discuss how the self-improvement path is ultimately a recognition that you were fine all along. And Katie questions the whole narrative of what success is – and why achievement in and of itself isn't impressive, it's asking yourself – how are you going to use that to contribute to the wellbeing of others and the world.And it won't surprise you to hear that Katie joined forces with someone who has used his platform to do exactly that Marcus Rashford – to help write his book You are a Champion.Katie's world-class mindset development programme is here: https://www.moonshotseries.co.uk/Katie's clinic: https://www.theprimeclinic.co.uk/**A huge thanks to my sponsors, Puresport.

In this episode, I’m speaking with Helen Richardson-Walsh who famously won Olympic Gold in Rio 2016 in Hockey.Our conversation really becomes framed around the inner workings of team environments, Helen was the youngest player to ever play for Team GB in an Olympic Game and we discuss what it’s like going into a team as a younger, less established player, to then how to create a positive environment years later as a more senior figure in the team.We go into what was behind the changes that Team GB made between Olympics that moved them from Bronze to Gold, that she was able to cherish with her Wife and Teammate, Kate. Helen also talks about her experiences of transitioning as a coach and how looking through the lens of a players perspective has helped her look at the role in a different light.This episode is sponsored by Network My Club.Find out more about their online networking and event management.

Setting an example and being a role model with former England and GB hockey captain Kate Richardson-Walsh. Kate captained Britain to a historic gold medal in hockey at the 2016 Rio Olympics. She is the most capped player in her country’s history, and Kate and Helen Richardson Walsh are the first married gay couple to win Olympic gold medals in the same team. They are now expecting their first baby, due before the end of the year. The theme of this conversation between Simon Mundie and Kate is: setting a positive example and being a role model. Kate captained England and Britain for 13 years, having been chosen for the role by her teammates when she was just 23 years old. Kate believes one of the reasons her peers chose was because she consciously set out to be a good example and a role model to her teammates. The attitude stemmed in part from having been dropped early in her career, which forced Kate to make a choice and fully dedicate herself to her sport. Reacting to that one setback as a teenager was the catalyst for all the success that followed. In this episode Kate talks about actively seeking out other people to learn from, and the importance of having a vision and sharing that with your team around you, and having them fully buy into it. She illustrates the importance of having tough conversations as well as the power of having a selfless attitude, and explains why it’s worth finding out how you react to pressure. We also talk about being part of a high profile same-sex couple, and why women’s hockey is so much more open and accepting than many other more high profile sports.
