This podcast was originally recorded in 2021 when David Galbraith and I used to Co-Host the Pod live on Facebook every Monday night. I really enjoyed going back and listening to this (Apart from listening to myself, I think I was pretty nervous that night!) and listening to how Ian saw his role as a coach and I am not surprised the players all got behind him last year when things weren't quite going to plan. I hope you enjoy this podcast and if you do it would be great if you could share it with your mates!Send us a textSupport the showhttps://talkingperformancepod.com/

This week I am joined by Dr Ihirangi (Ihi) HekeIhi is an honorary research fellow to the University of Auckland and has been working with Johns Hopkins University  to conduct a study using traditional indigenous health approaches alongside Systems Dynamics. Ihi is also working with Washington University in the development of training programmes exchanging Systems Dynamics from indigenous and non-indigenous perspectives.Over the past 10 years he has been active in helping Māori and other indigenous groups abroad, build their own health and wellness activities based on their own traditional knowledge. His Atua-Matua Framework has been a work in progress and is attracting national and international attention from health and education policy makers and providers who are struggling to apply standard western deficit models to global health initiatives and are looking to more localised indigenous models of engagement to deal with global health issues. Send us a textSupport the showhttps://talkingperformancepod.com/

Rachel helps us look with a little more detail in to the performance world Send us a textSupport the showhttps://talkingperformancepod.com/
