In this near final episode I have the pleasure to introduce Craig Ranson. Craig is the Director of Athlete Health for the English Institute of Sport. He joined the Institute in 2017 from his posts of Director of the MSc in Sports and Exercise Medicine at Cardiff Metropolitan University, and Physiotherapist with the Wales National Rugby Team. His previous posts include UK Athletics Chief Physiotherapist and National Lead Physiotherapist to the England and Wales Cricket Board. So a bag of leadership under his belt. With Craig we talk about the necessity to step away from being a specialist on the field, on how to prepare yourself - early on - to be good at any job, and the value of seeking conflict. As usual we start with an icebreaker quote, and Craig’s came from his grandfather: "It’s not a dress rehearsal".
