SPEAKING
A Candid Perspective on Performance, Pressure, and Leadership
Keynotes, workshops, facilitated conversations, and performance experiences grounded in firsthand lessons from elite sport
and applied across sport and business.
SPEAKING APPROACH
Andrew Talansky speaks about the realities of pursuing difficult goals – and what conventional conversations about peak performance often overlook.
His perspective is grounded in a career spent competing at the highest level of international sport and subsequent work across coaching, leadership, business, organizational performance, brand strategy, and community development.
Rather than relying on generic messages about determination or overcoming adversity, Andrew examines the systems, behaviors, relationships, and environments that allow people, athletic teams, and businesses to perform when the stakes are high.
Every engagement is adapted to the organization, team, audience, and desired outcome.
