Dr. Jon Daly joins us in the studio to discuss an incredibly important issue of self-advocacy in the Athletic Performance community. As professionals in athletic performance, how do we advocate or ourselves in a job where our value is always in question? Dr. Daly speaks to how crucial communication is to getting what you want. Often times we are too afraid to ask or we lack the skills to present a problem with a solution. Dr. Daly speaks to how professionals often fall short when presenting an idea and how to defend it using communication techniques. This episode is packed with strategies and ideas to equip business and athletic performance professionals alike with the ability to advocate for themselves.
