Optimism is not dead. In this week's episode I will be discussing the difference between passive/blind optimism and active optimism. I believe that active optimism is a powerful idea in living an depressant resilient life because it does not ignore pain and the reality of life, but it can be a force in creating the future when paired with community and action.  This week's episode is inspired by the idea of "Optimism as Cultural Rebellion," coined by artist Matthew Stone.Thank you for supporting the podcast!

Michael Cheika, the renowned rugby coach who was recently appointed Head Coach of the Lebanon men's rugby league team, explains that providing a safe environment for athletes is a good starting point when addressing social issues. "One of the huge things with coaching and leading is creating a balanced environment for players to perform in," he tells co-hosts Matthew Stone and Steve Gera. "Not ignoring anything and not going over the top; understanding exactly where the balance is." The management of social issues for the greater good of the team is just one of the questions posed on this edition of At Home With Leaders, which is brought to you by our Main Partners Keiser. Also on the agenda were: - The potentially overlooked importance of tactical skill acquisition [17:00]; - Balancing tactical structure with the need for creativity within a gameplan [20:00]; - Why it is important for a team to clarify what is meant by 'risk taking' in competition [25:30]; - Cheika's recent switch from rugby union to rugby league [29:00].

"What are we trying to achieve and why?" asks Mo Bobat, the Performance Director of the England & Wales Cricket Board. "In essence we're all problem-solvers and there's enough research out there to suggest that homogenisation of thought and ideas probably isn't a great way to problem-solve." Bobat is steadfast in his belief that teams with broad in skillsets and experiences are the best-equipped to tackle performance problems. He explored the power of diverse thinking in this latest episode of the Leaders State of Play Series, which is brought to you today by Elite Performance Partners [EPP], a search, selection and advisory firm working across elite sport and specialising in performance. Bobat, who in November hosted our EPP Webinar exploring the rise of the specialist-generalist in sports performance, was joined in conversation by Leaders' Matthew Stone and EPP Founding Partner Dave Slemen.

"When you go through change," says Jill Ellis, "a lot of it is continuing to talk about culture and the team-first environment you create, but it’s also about building in strategies to make this team feel that every single person is important and every single person matters." The two-time Fifa Women's World Cup-winning coach - who also won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2019 Leaders Sports Awards - appeared on the latest edition of At Home With Leaders, where she delves into the transition that the US women's national team [USWNT] undertook between the 2015 and 2019 tournaments.

"There was a meta study that suggests that 70 percent of an individual’s behaviour is determined by whatever environment they are in,” says Owen Eastwood. “That was the moment I could see it and that was the first verification of that truth.” Eastwood a performance coach who has profiled a variety of elite teams including the New Zealand All Blacks and Seattle Seahawks, and worked the England men’s national football team. In wide-ranging chat, Eastwood talks to co-hosts Matthew Stone and Luke Whitworth about why the fundamentals of what makes effective teams haven't changed since human beings were hunter-gatherers 60,000 years ago. Also on the agenda were: - Why our ancestors' insights into group dynamics are as relevant as ever [5:30]; - How an environment can disable your team strategy and vision if you’re not careful [15:00]; - The need to identify stories that create archetypes of the people you want your teams to be [20:00]; - Why genuine diversity stems from an environment of trust, leaders prepared to be vulnerable, and the comfort people feel in order to express ideas [34:00]; - A quickfire round of questions [38:30].

Alex Goode is one of the most decorated players in English rugby union. The Saracens’ fullback - the 2019 European Player of the Year - has won three European Champions Cups and five English Premiership titles with the north London side and amassed more than 300 appearances across 12 years. Goode, who was also man of the match in Sarries’ recent Champions Cup defeat of Leinster, gave co-hosts Matthew Stone and Steve Gera an insight into the mindset of a repeat champion. “I think lesser teams rely on the crowd, teams that I don’t respect that much,” he says of those who might be struggling to come to terms with empty pandemic-era stadia. “For me, that’s a pick and choose mentality - that’s something I would hate to the part of at my club. At Saracens we have always talked about never being a ‘pick and choose’ team.” But it was not always that way at the club, as he describes in a candid conversation that covers: - How that Saracens playing culture has evolved with each success [13:00]; - Assessing new players and what they bring to the dressing room [19:00]; - His reflections on his self-development through the years [24:00]; - Managing anxiety in the build-up to big matches [29:30]; - The question of motivations and from where they originate [32:30].

“In adversity, young people usually have the answers,” says Stuart Worden. “They’re amazing, they’re extraordinary - if the conditions for their creativity are there for them.” Worden is the Principal of the world-renowned BRIT School, a creative arts and technology school based in south London. Its alumni include artists Amy Winehouse, Adele and Hollywood actor Tom Holland. Unsurprisingly, the school has been a continuing source of inspiration across high performance sport, with teams and organisations looking to tap into their wisdom around the creation of learning environments and nurturing creativity. Worden himself appeared onstage at the 2015 Leaders Sport Performance Summit in London and was the ideal first guest in the Leaders State of Play Series. Speaking to co-hosts Matthew Stone and Michael Caulfield, Worden also offered his musings on: - Kindness and why it brings both a sense of adventure and courage help to develop young people [7:00]; - Why the most striking characteristic of young learners is their fragility [14:00]; - The mistakes that can be made in judging talented young people [27:00]; - Encouraging young people to take risks and not be afraid to fail [33:00].

What can the NBA's No1 draft pick expect when they arrive at the Minnesota Timberwolves? "One of our goals and focuses in our organisation is not only making players the best they can be but the best people they can be," says President of Basketball Operations Gersson Rosas. "That involves things that are not only near and dear to their heart but getting to know who those individuals are, being passionate, about their craft and their game is incredibly important." Rosas, who spoke to At Home With Leaders co-hosts Matthew Stone and Steve Gera, also discussed: - Why he thinks the Wolves must reflect their wider community [9:30]; - How the team will build upon their 'franchise cornerstones' Karl-Anthony Towns and D'Angelo Russell [21:30]; - The team's ongoing process of cultural evaluation [25:30]; - Rosas' meetings with the team's prospective new owners [28:30].

"Since Rio I've been asking myself do the athletes coming into the squad have a different set of values and attitudes and do I have the skills to adjust to that?" Danny Kerry, who has served as the Head Coach of the Great Britain and England men's hockey teams since 2018, is pondering the ways that athletes have evolved and whether he, as a coach, has the skillset to work with a new cohort. He asks himself that question a lot, he tells At Home With Leaders, and while he suggests that he has not always connected with athletes, Kerry has coached at international level for 23 years, with his crowning glory being the gold medal he won as Head Coach with the Great Britain women's team at the 2016 Rio Olympics. In conversation with co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, Kerry also reflects on: - Why the lockdown proved to be a 'gift' for Kerry and his staff ahead of the postponed Tokyo Games [5:30]; - Tweaking his training programme to engender resilience and self-efficacy in players [15:00]; - How he helps his players to find fulfilment beyond winning out on the field [22:00]; - The power of a 'self-selecting culture' and developing a 'depth of leadership' [24:30].

"You have to make the right decisions for you now, for the future, rather than the right decisions for you now, selfishly." The Director of Performance Rugby at the Rugby Football Union [RFU] is talking about the organisation's efforts to mitigate the disruption caused by the pandemic at levels of the game. It was just one of the topics on the agenda as the Irishman caught up with co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC.

Ben Cherington, the GM of the Pittsburgh Pirates, is keen to stress the sense of urgency felt by all Major League Baseball teams ahead of the truncated 2020 season. The reasons are manifold: instead of 162 regular season games there will be just 60, which gives greater weight to every result; the trade deadline has been pushed back four weeks until August 31; and 16 teams will make the playoffs compared to the traditional ten, which is more than 50% as Cherington points out. "That definitely changes the calculus for teams in terms of expectations," he tells At Home With Leaders, "and it may change their decision-making." Also on the conversational agenda with co-hosts Matthew Stone and Steve Gera were: - Beginning the Pirates's shift to a player-centric culture upon his appointment in November [5:00]; - Using technology to assist knowledge transfer across the clubhouse and front office [14:00]; - Sense checking progress both on and off the field [19:20]; - How teams can reflect their city or town and the implications for performance [27:00].

“Winning is not a good thing to think of as a goal,” says former England cricket captain Sir Andrew Strauss. “Look,” he clarifies, “you have to win - in high performance sport you can’t go too long without winning and remain in position. Winning has to be a focus - but it’s got to be part of something bigger.” Strauss, who chairs the ECB cricket committee, is speaking of the moment that his England team, in 2011, reached No1 in the ICC Test team world rankings and the accompanying sense of anticlimax. It is an issue he discusses during this episode of At Home With Leaders with co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC. Strauss also chats about: - His time as Director of Cricket at the ECB between 2015 and 2018 [15:30]; - Why leadership can be lonely [26:30]; - Coping with criticism and media scrutiny [28:00]; - Setting up the Ruth Strauss Foundation in honour of his late wife, whom he lost to lung cancer [33:00].

In September last year, Chris Powell joined Gareth Southgate's coaching staff at the England men's national football team. Powell's appointment was part of the Football Association's Elite Coach Placement Programme, which sought to place black, Asian and other minority ethnic coaches at various stages of the national player pathway. It is a position he discusses at length in this episode of At Home With Leaders, which is brought to you today by our sponsors Football Manager, the global hit football simulation game. The role also meant Powell, who played more that 760 senior matches before embarking on his coaching career a decade ago, had to spend his 50th birthday at an England training camp. "Normally I'd be planning a party or having a big meal with my family," he explains, "but I preferred this, to be honest!" Powell spoke to co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC. Also on the agenda were: - How the shutdown might have changed him as a coach [5:00]; - The evolving outlook of the modern player [14:00]; - Why Gareth Southgate welcomes being challenged at training [20:00]; - The capacity for footballers to effect change in society and the implications for their performance [28:00].

“‘Right, here’s our opportunity: ten years’ innovation in ten weeks’.” That was the challenge Scott Lloyd, the Chief Executive of the Lawn Tennis Association [LTA], set to Simon Timson, the LTA’s Performance Director, at the start of the coronavirus pandemic. “We’ve been looking more inwardly than outwardly,” Timson tells At Home With Leaders. “What are all the things we can do to give all our players a competitive advantage?” It’s a question he answers at considerable length with co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders' Senior Product Manager, and Steve Gera, the CEO of Gains Group, which helps some of sport’s greatest teams and athletes maximise the value of their data and technology. Timson also discussed: - His personal reflections during tennis’ shutdown [11:30]; - Why he feels players are going to become increasingly autonomous as we emerge from the pandemic [18:30]; - His theory that some sports could be set back two decades in terms of athlete support [21:30]; - The reasons he places such an emphasis on organisational alignment [37:30]; - His imminent appointment as the new Performance Director at English Premier League Manchester City [40:30].

"I always felt in my own heart that I was going to be a big driver of women's football - I'd made that decision," says Chelsea Head Coach Emma Hayes. "When you're a driver of anything, I focus on what I can do, not what I can't do; I'll focus on what I have, not what I don't have, and I'll focus what I want not what I don't want." Today's episode is brought to you by our sponsors Football Manager, the global hit football simulation game, and was recorded shortly before Chelsea were awarded the WSL title. Hayes spoke to co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC, and went into great depth about how her attitudes towards coaching, leadership and motherhood have changed during sports' shutdown. Also up for discussion were: - The guilt she has felt during the lockdown about her ability to cope relatively well [11:30]; - Why coach education has long failed the women's game in England [21:00]; - Chelsea's work with UK charity Refuge, which supports women and children experiencing domestic abuse [32:00]; - The importance of mental health awareness in sport and beyond [35:00].

Dean Smith joined the At Home With Leaders Podcast during what was due to have been the final week of the English Premier League season. Instead, Smith and Aston Villa, where he serves as manager, have not played since 9 March amidst the ongoing spread of the coronavirus pandemic and, like the rest of us, he has been confined to home. There is still no return date set for the English top flight but this enforced downtime has presented Smith with unprecedented opportunities, including this appearance on At Home With Leaders, which is brought to you today by our sponsors Football Manager, the global hit football simulation game. "This season is still going, we've got 10 games left to play," says Smith of his first season as a Premier League Manager. "There's a lot of things to learn and learn from." He has gone back and reviewed each Villa match, which is something he wouldn't normally do, in the pursuit of insights. "I've managed to do a video review with every player, which during the season is something I would never get the chance to do." Smith spoke to co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC [where Caulfield worked alongside Smith], Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC. Also on the table for discussion were: - The ways in which Smith has evolved as a coach [11:00]; - His ability to maintain emotional regulation at crucial moments [17:00]; - Balancing gut instinct and data [20:30]; - Building relationships with players, coaches and staff [22:00]; - Why being challenged is good for his leadership skills [26:30].

"Though I have been in this role for nearly two years," says Kyle Dubas, "I still think having this time in the last six weeks has allowed me to reflect on the fact that we have a long way to go to get where I think we can in terms of our environment each day and how that impacts on our performance and the mindset of our people." Dubas, the General Manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs since 2018, makes it clear that the team - one of the most storied in NHL history - remains a work in progress. As the resurgent Leafs continue their work towards winning a first Stanley Cup since 1967, Dubas took time to speak to our co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders' Senior Product Manager, and Steve Gera, the CEO of Gains Group, which helps some of sport’s greatest teams and athletes maximise the value of their data and technology. At Home With Leaders brings you a wealth of guests drawn from across sports performance to explore how they are adapting to the new normal, attempting to thrive and contribute to the eventual reboot of the sports performance landscape. Dubas also discussed: - How the Leafs are using the break to bridge the gap to the likes of Tampa Bay and Boston [8:30]; - His observations on how the culture of the organisation has developed during his time at the helm [13:00]; - How hockey is evolving beyond its conservative reputation [24:00]; - Coping with the pressure of being storied club and a big market team [29:00].

"We're all in this enforced plateau period but I think it can be a really good thing," says Stuart Lancaster. The Leinster Senior Coach is talking online amidst the "towels and rubbish" of his son's student house in Leeds - a move forced by the meagre WiFi available at the main Lancaster residence. Whether or not this parental jibe is justified, we're in no position to say, but if anyone was going to use the enforced downtime for self-reflection it was likely to be Lancaster. "Someone once told me," he says, "your journey as a leader starts on an upward curve and there comes a moment when you plateau as a leader, then you take that 'time out', then you grow again and move on." Lancaster is speaking to co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC. Also on the conversational agenda were: - How the structure of the global game will change in rugby union [6:30]; - The importance of the leader getting down to the gym floor [15:00]; - The four tenets of Lancaster's leadership philosophy and why confidence grows from competence [16:30]; - The rationale behind making changes before they are necessary [22:30].

Thomas Dimitroff readily admits that he found this year's NFL Draft to be a challenging experience. With remote working currently a necessity due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Atlanta Falcons' General Manager, found his focus being drawn elsewhere. "Normally, with a month and a half to go I am locked-in; I'm so focused on my evaluation of players - rarely am I reaching out to people within football operations," he explains. "I'm interacting but they know to steer clear of me because I'm getting ready. I spent a lot more time trying to be a leader in certain ways outside of evaluating for our upcoming draft. That was complicated and it really tugged at a lot of areas within my focus. Thomas is talking on the latest edition of At Home With Leaders, which is brought to you today by our co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders' Senior Product Manager, and Steve Gera, the CEO of Gains Group, which helps some of sport’s greatest teams and athletes maximise the value of their data and technology. At Home With Leaders brings you a wealth of guests drawn from across sports performance to explore how they are adapting to the new normal, attempting to thrive and contribute to the eventual reboot of the sports performance landscape. From his home near Atlanta, Thomas also touches upon: - The reasons why a true work-life balance is a competitive edge in the modern NFL [9:00]; - Why adaptability and selflessness were important traits when the team started its 2019 campaign 1-7 [20:00]; - His efforts to ensure draftees such as AJ Terrell are suitable talent and character fits [26:00]; - How the onboarding process has changed in the NFL [31:00].

Sir Dave Brailsford and Team INEOS may be handling sports coronavirus-enforced shutdown better than most sports organisations. "As a team, we don't have a facility base," the INEOS Team Principal begins in explanation. "We go to a race, we work together, and then we have to work very much geographically dispersed; a lot of the time it's conference calls, Zoom calls - the way that everyone is working at the minute is familiar to us... we're not racing, but it feels like a ramped-up business-as-usual to us." Nevertheless, Brailsford provided some typically thought-provoking insights during his appearance on At Home With Leaders, where he spoke to co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC. Up for discussion were: - Team INEOS' three-stage approach to managing its organisation during the pandemic [6:00]; - Brushing off the envy of rivals and fellow competitors [23:00]; - Environmental factors that impact on what he terms the 'discretionary' aspects of performance [29:00]; - How his recent illness changed his perspective on work and life [37:00].

“All the people here, over the past four years, like me, have left a really good job,” says Sean Marks. “They had to sacrifice something to come here, whether it was the vision, the Nets, myself, ownership, whatever it is. [Those individuals] have ownership in everything they do. Our day to day activities do not revolve around one person. It’s a complete collaboration and I don’t have to remind them of that.” Marks, who became General Manager of the Nets in 2016, has overseen the franchise’s return to prominence since arriving from the San Antonio Spurs where he served as Assistant GM. Excitement is building around Brooklyn and the team’s ‘people-first’ approach to culture. It’s something Marks discusses with considerable pride on the latest edition of At Home With Leaders, our new minseries of podcasts brought to you today by our co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders' Senior Product Manager, and Steve Gera, the CEO of Gains Group, which helps some of sport’s greatest teams and athletes maximise the value of their data and technology.

“You get on that hamster wheel and you never quite get off and look around,” says Sean Dyche of the typical lifestyle of a Premier League manager. These are, however, far from normal times in pandemic Britain and Dyche, the third-longest-serving manager in English football, took time from his schedule - a combination of club commitments and household chores - to speak to At Home With Leaders co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC. At Home With Leaders brings you a wealth of guests drawn from across sports performance to explore how they are adapting to the new normal, attempting to thrive and contribute to the eventual reboot of the sports performance landscape. From his home in Northampton, Dyche delved into: - Why the Premier League shutdown has afforded such a welcome period of reflection and relaxation [6:30]; - His view that support mechanisms for players have gone too far in English academies [16:00]; - The levels of stress that have ‘flooded’ into the game in the modern era [20:30]; - How the motivations of young players have shifted since playing football became like a job [24:00]; - Keeping staff and players fresh while maintaining your key core values [31:00].

"It's hard for great leaders to get the credit they deserve because, by definition, if they do their job well then nothing happens." Journalist and author, Sam Walker, is musing on the notion of leadership at this time of global crisis. "There's a perception that leadership is what you do in a crisis; how you respond," he continues. "But we forget that leadership by its purest definition is what you do when there is no crisis; between crises, it's what you do in terms of planning for the next one. "There's an argument that a crisis, especially one on this level, is a failure of leadership." Walker, who is the author of The Captain Class and a columnist for the Wall Street Journal is the latest guest in our new minseries of podcasts brought to you today by our co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders' Senior Product Manager, and Steve Gera, the CEO of Gains Group, which helps some of sport’s greatest teams and athletes maximise the value of their data and technology. At Home With Leaders brings you a wealth of guests drawn from across sports performance to explore how they are adapting to the new normal, attempting to thrive and contribute to the eventual reboot of the sports performance landscape. Walker, direct from his home in Long Island, New York, also discusses: - Why he feels we have forgotten what competent leadership looks like [4:30]; - Leaders such as Jung Eun-kyeong and Anthony Fauci, who have grown as leaders during the pandemic despite not conforming to our conventional view of leaders [8:00]; - The qualities that make deputies, such as Fauci, become so revered at this time of crisis [18:00]; - Why the idea of rivalries in sport will be unhelpful as we emerge from the pandemic [25:30]; - Whether or not leaders will learn humility in the future and be less prone to bombast [33:00].

Eddie Jones, the Head Coach of the England men's rugby union team, is a firm admirer of Liverpool FC's Jürgen Klopp. "I watch Klopp coach and he definitely adds something to his team," says Jones, who regularly cites other leaders whom he finds inspirational both in sport and beyond. "When he's out there at Liverpool's home ground, [the players and supporters] want someone energetic; someone who understands the psyche of that team." Jones pauses to reflect on his leadership style and the importance of personal energy in the second episode of our new minseries of podcasts brought to you today by our co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders' Senior Product Manager, and sports psychologist and consultant Michael Caulfield, whose clients include Brentford FC, Northampton Saints RFC and Hampshire CCC.

Major League Baseball remains shutdown but Mark Shapiro spies opportunities for growth and self-improvement right across the Toronto Blue Jays. “We’re going to have to increase our level of open-mindedness and the way we connect with fans,” says the Blue Jays’ President and CEO. “The way we think about our game and the way we actually play and produce our game - the path back is likely to be a long one.” Shapiro is the first guest on a new miniseries of podcasts brought to you by our co-hosts Matthew Stone, Leaders’ Senior Product Manager, and Steve Gera, the CEO of Gains Group, which helps some of sport’s greatest teams and athletes maximise the value of their data and technology. The duo will bring you a slate of guests drawn from across sports performance to discuss how they are adapting to the new normal, attempting to thrive and contribute to the eventual reboot of the sports performance landscape. From the comfort of his home office and standing desk, Shapiro talks about: - Ongoing scenario-planning at the Blue Jays [5:00]; - The unintended consequences of the MLB shutdown [9:00]; - Why the Blue Jays are prioritising mental health and wellbeing for all athletes and staff [15:40]; - Knowing how to check the organisation’s cultural health [22:00]; - Why the potential of the team’s new practice facility still remains unknown [25:20].

Anyone who has ever tried to be creative – in music, the arts, in their filing system at their shit temp job – has at some point felt the sinking feeling that they will never come up with anything new; that everything has been done before. And this feeling only intensifies as the internet continues to give us free, easy access to every cultural product in recent human history. So has originality really died for good? In this week's podcast, performance artist Marina Abramovic, PC Music's Danny L Harle and a big TV commissioner tell us how they deal with the question of originality. Then visual artist Matthew Stone discusses how 2016 may have messed up our feelings towards newness, and explains why, sometimes, it's not all about being first.

The Amateur Traveler talks to Matthew Stone about his home in Northern Virginia. Matthew describes things to do in Northern Virginia either as a side trip from Washington D.C. or a trip in its own right. We start at the famous monuments and Arlington National Cemetary just south of the District of Columbia and proceed to George Washington’s home of Mount Vernon. Matthew then describes some parks and places to escape the city a short drive away. Sure you know that the National Cemetery is in Virginia but did you know you can find a Black History museum, an Apothecary museum and a Tony award winning regional theater all within walking distance of the Metro? Add in some National Parks, Civil War Battlefields, and the SR 71 Blackbird and you may just have to rearrange your plans for your next vacation to the nation’s capital.
