Sports Talk - Stuart Armstrong and Alex Wolf
09/18/23 • 48 min
This week’s CreAtIve Tech podcast is a sports roundtable. Professor Neil Maiden is joined by Stuart Armstrong, Strategic Lead for Workforce Transformation at Sport England, and Alex Wolf, Sports Consultant and founder of Strength and Conditioning Academy.
Stuart and Alex consider the culture of curiosity and creativity that sports coaching must support for successful outcomes; the importance of psychological safety in training; and the effects of power dynamics on coaches and athletes.
Join the debate on the difference between good and bad sports coaching, re-appraising coaching behaviour, and why being tough and mean is antithetical to high performance.

Professor Anna Whitelock
Anna Whitelock is Executive Dean of the School of Communication & Creativity, at City University of London. She also just happens to be an expert in the history of the UK Monarchy and had a few things to say about the recent coronation of King Charles III.
The School of Communication and Creativity was opened in the Autumn of 2022 and Anna explains what it’s all about and how their ambition is to break the mould of performing arts schools and be more accessible to a wider range of students with a focus on diversity and inclusivity and an ambition to change the creative industries.
This wide-ranging conversation takes in the need to support creativity in business, defines creative intelligence and examines the fundamental differences between human creativity and AI-generated content.
