About Course

This capstone session integrates advanced mental skills with the psychology of team performance. We’ll take a deep dive into the concept of flow (the “zone”), examining Csikszentmihalyi’s flow theory, the challenge–skill balance, and research connecting flow states to career-best performances. From there, we’ll extend the discussion from individual flow to team flow, exploring how trust, communication, and leadership foster collective synergy. You’ll apply concepts such as transformational leadership, motivational climates, and conflict management to design team rituals and huddles that align focus and strengthen cohesion. The session concludes with an integrated review of all the mental skills covered in the series, highlighting how athletes and teams can weave them into daily training and competition.
