Topics, Sessions And Talks
In the pursuit of equality, we sometimes overlook important differences between men and women, which should influence how we design systems so that everyone can fulfil their potential. In this session, Dr Emma Ross shares her decade-long exploration of what it takes to create equitable environments and what happens when you do.
Leading transformation or change is both exciting, and challenging. In this inspiring and insightful talk, Dr Emma Ross shares her change-making journey of addressing gender inequalities in sport, and the gaps which threaten to derail that journey. From gender gaps to data gaps to knowing-doing gaps, Emma’s lessons learned in sport will help any business or organisation through periods of change and evolution.
Sports science seeks to understand how to optimise human performance. But it’s not just in sports where individuals and teams need to perform at their best. Dr Emma Ross’ holistic, bio-psycho-social approach to wellbeing and performance, learnt from a decade in sports science research and a further decade applying this expertise in the elite sporting world, will help individuals and organisations realise and embrace high-performance habits.
How is our biology related to how we experience the world? How does what’s going on inside our body influence our behaviour, our relationships, our communication, and our ability to perform well? These are the questions Dr Emma Ross answers in her insightful and thought-provoking talk for any organisation wanting to explore wellness, wellbeing and health as an important foundation of performance and success.
