Playing from the heart

Philosophy

It’s time to change the way we play the game.

To redefine how people engage with work, effort, ambition and performance.

To play from the heart takes love and bravery, challenge and care, ambition and perspective.

When there is no finish line, we owe it to ourselves to perform with meaning, to ensure we’re fit for purpose. 

This new and unique 10 week long programme, will re-programme your thinking. It is fully online and supported by the power of The Performance Room.

There are weekly challenges, self analysis and development, expert virtual coaching and a global community of supporters changing the way they play along with you.

This is an opportunity to reconstruct and find the power to play with heart.

Testimonials

“Playing from the Heart serves a huge helping of tried-and-tested ideas drawn from sports psychology and performance coaching, and breaks them down into deceptively bitesize chunks.

The step-by-step program is challenging and thought-provoking in the best ways, and it really honours what it means to be ‘me’ and how I might choose to show up in my work context, as well as how I can have control to vary the level of effort and energy needed for different tasks.

I really appreciate the expert navigation Chris brings to the process, combining high energy, deep learning and helpful challenge – each supporting me to build my personal game plan that identifies where my skills, energy, experience and interests lie, and how I might choose to deploy them to achieve my goals.

The use of sporting performance concepts is so relatable and inspiring, and a real confidence builder.

There’s something in working week by week, together with the support of a peer group, which drives a welcome level of accountability and energy and sets a brisk pace for learning together and embedding the discoveries.”
