Join former South African cricketer, JP Duminy in conversation with leading Performance Coach, Owen Eastwood on his new book, Belonging: The Ancient Code of Togetherness - a book that empowers readers to unlock the highest levels of togetherness and performance.
Whakapapa. You belong here.
Whakapapa is a Maori word which embodies our universal human need to belong. It represents a powerful spiritual belief – we are all part of an unbroken and unbreakable chain of people who share a special culture.
Owen Eastwood places this concept at the core of his methods to maximise a team's performance. In this book, he reveals, for the first time, the secrets to what has made him one of the most in-demand Performance Coaches in the world.
Aspects of Owen's unique approach include: finding your identity story; establishing a shared purpose; fostering player leadership rather than dictatorship; seeking the clarity of a collective why; establishing a sense of legacy; recognizing our primal need for social bonding; embracing ancestral wisdom; analyzing the link between confidence and trust, and treasuring the value of humility.
In Belonging, he shines a light on where these powerful ideas are applied around our world in high-performing settings encompassing sport, business, the arts, and the military.
