Talent is a good thing…right?
In today’s episode, we’re joined by professor, PhD, coach, author, scientist, Joe Baker. Joe is a Professor at York University whose work focuses on studying human development, looking at psychosocial and environmental factors, to see how the best athletes in the world achieve peak performance.
Joe’s work has led him to advise dozens of high-profile athletic organizations, including the Texas Rangers, the Canadian Paralympic Committee, and Wheelchair Rugby Canada.
We wanted to sit down with Joe to discuss his research on ‘talent development’ and how in many environments, in sports or in the workforce, ‘talent,’ as we traditionally think about it, can actually do more harm than good for your people.
This one’s a really interesting episode, one you’re not going to want to miss, so with that…let’s bring it in!
