• On Shared Wisdom with the Anglia Ruskin University Students

  This episode is something a little different. I am joined by Dr David Turner, who is a Senior Lecturer in Sport Coaching Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge in the United Kingdom and some of his students and a fellow teacher. David takes the lead in this episode and we share learning we have all taken from Great Coaches as well as how some the students intend to apply what they have learned in the world. The tables were turned at times as the students and David asked me questions as well; something which I found enjoyable but also quite challenging!A special thanks to Wleed Mazhar, Kye Buckle, Becky Marshall, Beth Parsons and Eloise Pemberton for taking part.If you would like to send us any feedback or if you know a great coach, who has a unique story to share, then we would love to hear from you, please contact us at [email protected] or contact us through our website thegreatcoachespodcast.com Hosted on Acast.
