Meyler Campbell Digest: August 2021

Each month we share the latest from Meyler Campbell. This month we are delighted to welcome as guest editor William Alexander, who joined Meyler Campbell from Spencer Stuart and is now one of our Executive Directors.  William shares his early observations on Meyler Campbell, and some resources on leadership inspired by this month’s feast of sport in the UK and around the world.

Juan Coto Award Winner
In early 2020 when the first lockdown struck we were most of the way through the Juan Coto Award process. We decided to pause the final stage, however, we are now delighted to announce the Award has been won by Richard Stoneman for research on coaching, public conversations and political leadership. For more, and to read Richard’s full research proposal, click here

On Sunday 3rd October, Meyler Campbell’s Alana Giles will be taking part in the 2021 Virgin Money London Marathon. Alana will be running the 26.2 miles to raise funds for Pancreatic Cancer UK, a charity close to her heart, and would really appreciate the support of the Meyler Campbell community. Alana has been training hard in preparation for the marathon, and recently completed the Vitality BigHalf Marathon. If you would like to sponsor Alana, please click here.

As part of a research project being led by one of our Mastered Graduates, we are very keen to understand your attitude to and use of technology in your coaching. We would be grateful for just 10 minutes of your time to complete a short survey. Please follow the link below to complete the anonymised questionnaire. The survey will close on 7th September, so we would very much appreciate a prompt response.

Thank you for your participation and we look forward to sharing the results of our research with you later this year: Coaching & Technology Research Survey
