The discussion includes Dan’s unique approach to mental skills training, tailored for athletes at all levels, and his innovative ‘Game Face’ concept, which assists athletes in achieving their optimal mental state for peak performance. Dan also touches upon the function of sports psychologists in premier football teams, with a particular focus on Ajax and Manchester United, detailing the importance of psychological strategies and trust cultivation in enhancing team performance. Additionally, the episode covers how breaches in trust can impact an athlete’s performance and overall well-being, and the role of sports psychologists in rebuilding trust following major scandals.
