๐ฆ It's almost that time again! Euro 2024 is here, and our beloved England team is ready to bring the excitement (and maybe a few nail-biting moments) to the pitch. As we gear up to support our team, letโs have a bit of fun and look at what makes them truly stand out! โฝ ๐๐๐๐ฆ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ค ๐๐๐ค๐๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ฆ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ค Sure, weโve got star players, but itโs the teamwork that makes the magic happen.

Whether itโs staying cool going 1-0 down or keeping their heads up after a dodgy ref decision, their mental toughness is the stuff of legends.

What Do Football Teams and OR Teams Have in Common? More Than You Think! ๐โฝ๏ธ When the Dutch football team met Austria during the Euro Championship 2024, it was a tough match.

As the European Championships progress, commentary has again focussed on the Gareth Southgate's leadership style with his use of psychological techniques taking centre stage, following the last match. We all know England's history with penalties and I know I was intrigued to see the calmness and success in the recent match in the penalty shootout. This morning in the Make Work Better email from Bruce Daisley he shared the thoughts of Geir Jordet, a leading researcher on this topic. His insights reveal that preparation, attention to detail, rituals and fostering the right culture are crucial. Englandโs manager Gareth Southgate has embraced these lessons, notably improving the team's approach. A standout example is the introduction of "buddies" for penalty takers, players are assigned to support each taker regardless of the outcome and welcomes each penalty taker back to the team. This replaces their previous linked arm formation with the penalty taker feeling alone and prevents the isolating experience Marcus Rashford faced in Euro 2020, promoting a sense of unity and support. the formation also allows more flexibility to offer functional social support to each other. These measures exemplify the structured application of psychological techniques, ensuring players feel supported and less fearful of failure. As England faces the semi-final tonight, these insights remind us of the importance and value of creating a supportive environment, both on the field and in our teams. Let's see what tonight brings! #PsychologicalSafety #Leadership #Teamwork #Euro2024 #England

Haaland and De Bruyne had nothing left in Real Madrid loss and Rodri is begging for a rest... Meanwhile, Man City has 9 players (half of their first team squad) who have played more than 3000 minutes, so far, this season. There's a reason why English teams are all out of the Champions League and Europa League already this season. Like every human being, even elite athletes need rear and recouperation, rather than training and strength conditioning. I had this discussion earlier in the week with @Andy Driscoll, and it won't get any easier, since many of the elite will play in the European Championship tournament after the season ends. This at a time when clubs are unable to invest in bigger squads, because of Financial Fair Play, and Profit and Sustainability Rules. Soccer is a product, and is being weakened by greed, overindulgence and the basic inability to be able to understand anatomy and physiology, biomechanics and psychology. But it isn't only soccer. How many companies are now employing 'Fatigue Managers'? What do they aim to achieve? They identify change as a solution, but they never get it, due to the cost, so the whole thing is doomed to fail, and the problems will remain. Have a brilliant and relaxing weekend everybody. #stress #fatigue #soccer #fatiguemanager #hr #ohs #weekend https://mol.im/a/13323007 via https://dailym.ai/android

Quality will always show in the end and a lack of it (relatively speaking), will usually be equally important to the end result. With the Euro 2024 tournament now officially over, it's ended up as another near miss for England (the men's team at least). It was oh so near but still oh so far again ๐...and now I wait with millions of fellow England fans for another shot at lifting a trophy in two years time. Our 'failure' ultimately came down to the level of quality we had throughout our team compared to the widely recognised superior quality of the Spanish team. So, what's my point here? Well, put simply, quality will always end up being your friend. The better the quality, the better your chances of success - whether we're talking about national football teams or day to day in your business. My strap line is: Never Compromise on Quality Quality is your friend. Quality is what I do. So, let's get talking. Oh and lastly...unlucky England, I'm absolutely gutted. But well done Spain, you were the better team and you did deserve to lift the trophy. #Euro2024 #Quality #QualityMatters

โฝWhy football tournaments like Euro 2024 inspire my professional goals ๐ ย Watching Euro 2024 means more to me than just enjoying exciting matches from different countries including England, where I grew up, and Germany, where I live and work. ย The teamwork, strategy and determination on the pitch strongly align with my own values and goals (pun intended!) at work. ย Just like a great football team, we rely on good planning, teamwork, and continuous learning to get great results for both us and our clients (our fans?). ย And when we help a client successfully tackle a business challenge, it can feel like scoring goals and winning a match together! ย How does sport inspire your professional goals?
