035: Mental health and performance - In Good Company with Dan Jones and Dr Jenn Gandhi

Dr Jenn Gandhi attributes the opening scenes of The Silence and the Lambs, synchronised swimming and a sense of adventure for taking her down her career path. Tune in to this episode to hear from the Mental Health and Wellbeing Manager at The Football Association on the power and scope football has to enable positive change, how you can recognise burnout and what are the most important things for a leader to keep in mind to avoid being overwhelmed by physical, cognitive or emotional pressures at work.
“Let’s compare ourselves to any professional / non-professional player. It doesn't matter what level you play at, you will always warm up, perform, cool down, rest and recover before you go again. Yet in the corporate world we just perform we don't prioritise the rest. So how can we make this part of our standard routine?”
