On the field, when a referee makes a call he disagrees with, he wants to throw a punch, and no amount of mindset work was going to change that in the moment.\nEnoka, the All Blacks' mental skills coach for 23 years, did not argue the point. He gave the player a simple physical structure instead, and the player's own frustration rating dropped within seconds of trying it. It is the example Enoka now uses to explain why he believes structure, not mindset, is the most underrated lever in high performance. \nHigh performance is not about pushing harder. It is about building the capacity to perform when it matters and sustain it over time.\nHosted by Andrew May, one of Australia’s leading experts in human performance, leadership and mental skills, the Performance Intelligence Podcast explores how leaders, athletes, coaches and researchers think clearly, manage pressure and consistently perform at their best.\nDrawing on more than 20 years working with senior executives, elite sporting teams and the Australian Defence Force, Andrew combines candid conversations with evidence-based performance insights and practical strategies you can apply.\n\nEpisodes span leadership capacity, performance psychology, mental skills, energy management, strategic recovery, productivity and wellbeing.\nListen to think more clearly, lead more effectively and perform at your best for longer.\nGet in touch through:\nOur website\nBook Andrew\nFollow us on Instagram, Linkedin, Facebook\nWatch this episode on Youtube\nIf you enjoy the podcast, we would really appreciate you leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or Google Play.
