Sports Leader Community of Practice (CoP)
Traditional sports leadership capacity is now a commodity in the fourth industrial revolution - directing is sports 1.0, managing is sports 2.0, and performance is sports 3.0.
Sports 4.0 will require new leadership capacities to solve problems like, performance, diversity, change, gender, coaching, finance, systems, race, socio-cultural, strategy, corruption and sustainability.
Sports Leadership 4.0 Peer Community of Practice

The community of practice is a peer group that shares a concern or a passion for
dealing with issues reshaping global leadership in sports business/industry, such as performance, management, race, directing, gender, socio-cultural, sustainability, corruption, politics, millennials, ethnicity, systems, change, problem-solving, finance and strategy.
