Do you move or do you maneuver? Before you answer, consider the following: anyone can move; maneuvering involves intent and iteration. Now ask yourself a slightly different question. Do you talk or do you communicate? Same rules apply. Communication, like maneuvering, requires strategy and feedback.

On today’s show we are joined by someone seeking to help an elite organization better maneuver AND communicate: Ryan Donahue of the San Francisco 49ers.

We also talk about:

Ryan is in his sixth year with the 49ers as the team’s reconditioning coordinator. He is a licensed physical therapist, Board Certified Sports Physical Therapist (SCS) and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). Before joining the 49ers, Donahue was a physical therapist at the Andrews Institute for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine in Gulf Breeze, FL where he provided rehabilitation for athletes in the NFL, NBA, MLB, Olympic Teams as well as US Special Forces and general population. Ryan has also spent time at Northeastern University, EXOS, UConn, UNC Chapel Hill and Mike Boyle Strength & Conditioning.

As you heard today, the only way to get real feedback on communication is to be evaluated as you are performing the skill. Our Apprenticeships™ are just that. We create a safe space where professionals from all fields can practice (and fail) while receiving a scientifically validated assessment. What are you waiting for? Join us at our next event!
