What can business leaders learn from sport? Sportspeople are often praised for their endurance, focus, and resilience. These are qualities businesses increasingly feel are vital for their own leaders and, to explore the subject further, iVentiv Marketing Manager Richard Parfitt spoke to Deniz Kayadelen, Head of Talent Management Consulting at EY, and Piers Martin, Head of Leadership and Academy Workforce Development at The Premier League.

The pair discussed resilience, diversity, psychological safety, and what it's like to swim the English Channel. Watch the interview for more on how where business should (and sometimes shouldn't) learn from sport.
