FROM ELITE SPORT TO BUILDING BUSINESS ...
From athletes preparing to take the first step to those that have already closed the locker door, Podium podcast features some of the world's leading sports stars as they navigate work life after a career in a professional sport. Through honest and open conversation, we’ll discuss their white collar world beyond the field of sport and explore how the characteristics and methods that shaped them as a successful sports person helps, or hinders, life in the boardroom.
FROM THE INFAMOUS 2005 ASHES-WINNING ENGLAND TEAM, we welcome this week’s Podium Podcast special guest: England cricketer, Simon Jones.
The reverse swing specialist joins Simon and Tom to discuss:
🎙 Coping with the crazy England cricket tour schedule & the impact on mental wellbeing.
🎙 What goes on tour (doesn’t always) stay on tour
🎙 THAT trip to Downing Street after THAT night out, post Ashes glory.
🎙 Fred the lunatic and Hoggard the social hand grenade.
🎙 Taking positive lessons from long-term injuries.
