UK Sport & Exercise Expert Geoff Greenwood Announces Innovative 'Company Athlete Training Program'.

Transferring the science behind elite Olympic Success to the fast-paced world of business, Geoff Greenwood today announces his unique Company Athlete Training and Development Program at www.businesstrainingonline.co.uk

With the Olympics now over and athlete consultation successful completed, the UK is being constantly exposed to the product of cutting-edge research in sporting science and one Sport and Exercise Science Consultant is helping those in business compete for their own personal gold medals by offering a unique fusion of sport science and business development.

The Company Athlete Training and Development Program is being facilitated by Geoff Greenwood, who has enjoyed both a successful career in business, as well as with his human performance work, training hundreds of athletes across an expansive range of sports.

The program's ethos is simple; that the performance science that is known, understood and used in sport can also be made available for executives, owners, managers and staff of all levels.

The program's core is centred upon mental & physical interaction and ranges from the science in the twelve mental skills areas (such as mental toughness, confidence, emotional mastery, motivation and team dynamics), along with the importance of physical fitness (including nutrition, sleep and energy) as well as the creation of myelin patterns for the mastery of skills, work and talent development and retention.

"The overall aim is to create corporate athletes and champions," explains Greenwood, who has been featured on BBC Radio 4 and has published a hugely successful business coaching book.

He continues, "Everything is available in a group setting or on a one-on-one level, each incorporating online and video-based training." Greenwood is keen to use the program as a channel to present many of the little-known findings that link sports and business success. For example, new research is proving a strong link between deep purposeful and deliberate practice and the development of talent and career achievement through brain chemistry.

"The concept is of performance in business, which mirrors sport in so many ways. It is equally rewarding. In fact, the ability to keep staff energetic and disease-free is a bigger threat to businesses than markets and products," Greenwood adds. Everything is packaged in one place, calling on Greenwood's exposure to both the round-science of mental and physical performance, as well as the multi-faceted challenge of business success.

While packaged for best results, the program remains flexible and can be customized to meet both the scale and requirements of any individual or organization. Both individual executives and entire workforces have already benefitted from Greenwood's coaching - a testament to his experience in both fields. "Get these principles right and you have a team that is ready and willing to become champions in whichever race your business runs next".
