Always happy to chat and get into more depth about any of the above - or any other related sport psychology concepts!

When it comes to teams, identifying a leadership group and cultural architects to champion a message is key.

Mapping out perceived skill and trust may also inform plans and signing policy - though this alone is probably a tad reductionistic!

Management relies on more than just relationships with your players (though this plays a huge part) buy-in is required at a number of levels!

Sounds like some excellent work, Richard! Was it part of a module or was it a workshop for all students?

My colleague @janeguiller.bsky.social and I have put our ideas down to share some of our reflections and suggestions on Generative AI - and are now delighted that you can read our suggestions here: doi.org/10.53841/bps...
Generative AI in sport and exercise psychology: Exploring opportunities and overcoming challenges
Sport and Exercise Psychologists are required to remain aware of technological advances and the impact that these may have on their profession. Artificial Intelligence (AI), and in particular Generative AI (GenAI), has become available to the general public and has widespread use much like the rise of the internet in the late 1990s. This advancement in technology has created new challenges for Psychologists – whether they are in practice or academia. Like the internet, AI tools may be a double-edged sword and have the potential to disrupt both the academic and applied practice of psychologists, offering both challenges and opportunities for the field. Therefore, it is important that Psychologists develop AI literacy so that they are equipped with knowledge on the functionalities of AI and understand the ethical implications for its use. In particular, knowledge of the underlying systems, their general principles, and the ways in which they have developed ‘knowledge’ are crucial for navigating AI whether it is to be integrated into practice or not. The aim of this paper is to discuss the potential transformation and innovation in practice provided by AI and argues that for this to be achieved the development of AI literacy is the starting point.

The universe sometimes gives us lessons on being human - from it making us stop to think and ponder existence, to remind us of the importance of shaping our environment - and the influence we can have on it - even if we think we’re being fairly inconsequential. Our actions and behaviours matter! 💭🧠

Solar activity happening millions of miles away influences our environment on our tiny blue dot - in this case a beautiful display of colours in the evening sky.
