Summary
On today’s episode I sit down with Amit Chitre, strategic communications consultant and author of the Amazon Best Seller The Other Playbook. Our conversation centres on the idea that we all have our own personal brand and how we show up in the world is a demonstration of our values. Through our conversation, Amit explains how The Other Playbook originated in a corporate training he was executing with senior leaders, helping them build better versions of themselves. A father of three sports-centric boys, Amit saw the need to bring the idea of personal branding to youth sports and wrote the book to help kids, teams and coaches identify their personal values and create personal brands that contribute to their success. Amit and I cover a lot of ground here, including how perceptions last and can impact an athlete's opportunities, how the parent, coach, athlete ecosystem creates a container for growth and development and how to help teens navigate the constant comparison they experience on social media. We discuss in detail the importance of embracing setbacks and how most athletic journeys are not a linear path. This episode is full of practical tools to teach your kids the importance of embracing values and showing up as the best version of themselves. I know I took a lot away from it.
