About the speakers:
Danielle Poulos is a dedicated advocate for wellbeing in high-performance environments.

As a coach for over 20 years, Danielle has led teams from Canada, Switzerland and Italy to win National Titles, developed future National Team athletes and earned multiple Coach of the Year honors. Since 2005, Danielle has worked as a Mental Performance Consultant, and in a variety of Research and Educator roles at Dalhousie University, Acadia, Mount Saint Vincent and the Nova Scotia Health Promotion Research Centre. She currently works with Own the Podium and National Sport Organizations as a Culture and Wellness Facilitator and is in the process of developing a Provincial Sport Culture Assessment.

Dr. Simon Taylor is a certified mental performance consultant at the Canadian Sport Institute Atlantic and supports individual athletes, teams and coaches in maximizing their performance and well-being. As a former NCAA Division I golfer Simon was fortunate enough to be coached by a variety of different coaches whom all had a shared interest—support Simon become the best golfer possible. During this time, it quickly became apparent that some coaching styles were more effective than others, leading Simon to pursue a PhD to examine different types of coaching more closely and the impact they have on athletes. As a result, Simon now spends much of his time supporting coaches directly, or via group workshops, to implement psychologically sound strategies that not only benefit the athlete but also the coach themselves.
