‘Kate and I share the same vision for how people can succeed sustainably’ Sarina Wiegman

'provides a map for anyone inside or outside sport to set themselves up for sustainable success' The Guardian

Lessons in success from the front line of performance psychology to help you find your purpose, fulfil your potential, and thrive.

During her two decades as a sport psychologist, Dr Kate Hays has been developing ‘The Building Blocks of Success’, a framework which has become a transformative programme for forging a winning mentality in both an individual and group setting.

The process has the power to transform good teams into great teams, while turning underperforming or misfiring athletes into title-winning forces. Crucially, the process accepts that it is important to win but it is more important to thrive. The priority focus is creating a sustainable culture that allows athletes to succeed, over and over again.

In How to Win, Dr Kate Hays will show you how her framework isn’t a resource solely reserved for elite Olympians or international football teams. In fact, anyone can find long-term and sustainable success using these methods.

Work your way through a series of easy-to-understand psychological exercises and challenges; apply the learned lessons and skills to your environment (whether that be in sport, business, family, or any individual or group endeavour); follow the processes set out in ‘The Building Blocks of Success’ to create a greater understanding of self and of the people working, playing or striving alongside you.

How to Win will help you find your purpose, fulfil your potential, and thrive.
