Dr Frank Dick OBE
Motivational Speaker, Sports Coach & Consultant

For the Olympic Year, why not book one of the most successful Athletics Coaches ever - the renowned motivational and business speaker FRANK DICK OBE.

From 1979 to 1994 FRANK DICK was the British Athletics Federation’s Director of Coaching, where he was widely acknowledged as one of the outstanding sports coaches in the world. It was during this period that the GB and Northern Ireland Athletics Team rose to become a genuine power in world athletics, led in particular by track stars such as Sebastian Coe, Sally Gunnell, Tessa Sanderson, Steve Ovett, Steve Cram, Linford Christie, Denise Lewis, David Moorcroft and Daley Thompson.

Frank`s record of personal achievement includes -

- Olympic Gold Medalist Daley Thompson
- Olympic Silver Medalist David Ottley
- UK Teams - Frank coached the relay teams for GB from 1978 to 1994 winning a medal in every World, European, Commonwealth and Olympic Games.
- 4 x 400m Gold Medal Winning Mens Relay at Tokyo World Championships (Roger Black, Kriss Akabusi, John Regis, Derek Redmond)

Against this history of excellence through coaching some of the best talent in international sport, he has, over the past 20 years of speaking to hundreds of companies around the world, recognized the key areas of personal and professional development which, once taken out of a ‘training room’ mentality and put into a business context, will lead to individual and team performance advantage, simply by giving a different perspective.
In addition to his existing presentations on Winning, Teamwork, Coaching, Leadership and Talent Development, Frank has specifically created a series of new presentations to coincide with the London Olympics – each embracing his ability to create a Winning Mindset.

PRESENTATIONS INCLUDE –

COACH LIKE AN OLYMPIAN – A real behind the scenes look at the Olympics – observations and anecdotes but looking at what makes an Olympian become a winner.

THE HARD WAY IS THE BEST WAY – It’s a tough road to the Olympics – but in any arena it is imperative to keep raising your performance and take on those mountains.

PREPARED TO PERFORM – Importance of performance is imperative to an athlete – but in business raising collective performance is the key to making the results they seek both achievable and probable.

OUR POWER - Whether planning or learning, our advantage is in interdependence, in doing it together. This is essential when it comes to any team sport in an Olympic Games.

COACHWORK - Every athlete needs a coach. This presentation looks at how we can learn to be more coachable and to develop our coaching ability.
