#30 IMG Academy and More - Dr. Duncan Simpson
Manage episode 433490078 series 3329179
In the third Slice of PIE of 2024, we get the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Duncan Simpson.
Duncan joined IMG from Barry University in Miami in 2017 - providing mental conditioning services for tennis, golf, and soccer. Originally from England, he received his Ph.D in Sport Psychology from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He’s a Certified Consultant with the Association of Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) and has been conducting mental skills training with athletes and coaches since 2005 - from a range of sports and varying in talent and ability from beginners to professional and Olympic athletes.
Most recently, Duncan along with co-host Dr. Greg Young have originated the Performers podcast, dissecting the autobiographical accounts of famous athletes, coaches practitioners and performers – including Dan Carter, Andre Agassi and most recently, Bubba Watson. As of this recording Duncan and Greg have produced 18 fantastic episodes, decoding the tips and tricks of high level performers – using their knowledge of sport psychology theory and practice to connect the dots. The link to the podcast is below, and I would highly recommend listening to it.
In this conversation with Duncan we talk about the podcast, as well as his experience leading a team of mental performance consultants at the IMG Academy, a private school based in Florida, as well as his insights and observations of what makes a psychologically informed environment – along with a few good book recommendation (again linked below).
