The Mindset of an International Speaker with Professor Damian Hughes

On this episode of Reframe Your Mindset for Success my guest is
Professor Damian Hughes.


Damian is an international speaker and best-selling author who
combines his practical and academic background within sport,
organisational development and change psychology, to help
organisations and teams to create a high performing culture.


He is the author of eight best-selling business books which have
been translated into ten languages. He was nominated for the 2007
William Hill Sports book of the year award for Peerless, his
biography of boxing great Sugar Ray Robinson. He has also
co-authored a critically acclaimed biography of boxing legends,
Thomas Hearns in Hitman: the Thomas Hearns Story and his
biography of Marvelous Marvin Hagler became the UK’s best-selling
sports biography.


He was appointed as a Professor of Organisational Psychology and
Change for Manchester Metropolitan University in September 2010.


He is the co-host of The High Performance Podcast, an acclaimed
series of interviews with elite performers from business, sport
and the arts, exploring the psychology behind sustained high
performance.


He has served as a member of the coaching team for England Rugby
League, Scotland Rugby Union and a wide range of international
and national sporting teams.


His innovative and exciting approach has been praised by Sir
Richard Branson, Muhammad Ali, Sir Terry Leahy, Sir Roger
Bannister, Tiger Woods, Jonny Wilkinson and Sir Alex Ferguson.


I met Damian about 10 years ago and have been fortunate to listen
to many of his keynote talks, read his brilliant books and been
able to chat all things sport and football with him. 


So it is an absolute pleasure having Damian on the podcast
talking about mindset, culture and high performance.
