" ...in my opinion, what makes a champion, and I mean a champion
in the broadest sense, is a champion mindset.
A
champion mindset! The world is viewed in its
totality through this mindset.
And,
if you have done something great in one field, you are far more
able to do it in another. Your champion mindset
is the transferable commodity and not the skill itself."
- The
inaugural Edwin Flack Lecture, Australian Olympic Committee,
Sydney, 26 June 1998
- Olympic Review June 1999 - the official publication
of the Olympic Movement
- Their Winning
Ways, The Australian, 8-9 April 2000
- 'What Makes
a Champion?' Penguin book
With these words, Professor Allan Snyder coined
a new phrase - he introduced a powerful new concept to the world!
Today Champion Mindset programs
proliferate worldwide.
Professor Allan Snyder instils your 'Champion Mindset'!
Inspiring,
motivating, and informative coaching on the ‘champion mindset’
can be learned from the person who coined the term, and whose
life and pioneering research embodies the concept of the champion
mindset.

Allan speaks passionately on
the universals of great success as derived from his scientific
research on the role played by the unconscious and emotions
in decision making, from his interviews with the worlds
greats and through his unique Olympic initiative - "What
Makes a Champion?"- a gathering of celebrity champions
from across the globe lead by Nelson Mandela in 2000
and by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair in 2008. |
