This is the first book to identify the underlying science behind anticipation and decision making in sport, enhancing our scientific understanding of these phenomena and helping practitioners to develop interventions to facilitate the more rapid acquisition of the perceptual-cognitive skills that underpin these judgements. Adopting a multidisciplinary approach — encompassing research from psychology, biomechanics, neuroscience, physiology, computing science, and performance analysis — the book is divided into three sections. The first section provides a comprehensiv...
Getting Ahead
Most managers start their career at the operational level. As such, they develop their leadership competencies from leading operational activities. However, as they advance further in their organization, the leadership competencies needed to lead effectively is different from the experience theyve gained at the operational level.
