How To Resolve Conflict In Motor Sport Teams
#motorsport #conflictresolution #teamsportspsychology
In part one of four episodes David Charlton and his colleague Alex Harper discuss conflict in small team sports, particularly motor sports, where different team members have varying goals. David highlights the confusion and pressure this can create for athletes. Alex goes on to emphasise the importance of assertiveness and non-violent communication, which involves observing, feeling, identifying needs, and making requests. They note the heightened emotions in sports and the need for athletes to understand and manage their reactions to pressure. Alex suggests that assertiveness can help athletes set boundaries and de-escalate conflicts. Future discussions will focus on strategies for passive athletes.
