As part of our ethos "Watch on Sunday, Learning on Monday" here at Ignition Human Performance, we are always looking for ways to take the lessons you will see this weekend at the race track and look at how they can be translated into unlocking business or personal performance.
As part of this we will look at the different Teams within Motorsport and throughout the season take a snapshot from our research and what we see like everyone else whilst watching a race, to give you a collective overview and opinion into what goes in to making a High-Performance team.
By doing this we hope that can then take these lessons and translate them into your own team or business. When reading this remember that not all one style from a certain team will work for you or indeed the situation you are in, but as you read different overviews within this series you can build out your own style and profile using key areas from all of them.
Below is just an overview and indeed our own opinion and is in no way endorsed by the team they are associated with. If you'd like an in-depth look at how the lessons from motorsport can unlock business or personal performance, via our Learning and Developent courses, based on our research and findings, along with insights from out network of professionals from within elite motorsport - please do get in contact with us.
