Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the Performance Psychcast. Today we are very fortunate to be speaking with Dr Niels Feddersen.

Niels Feddersen is an Associate Professor at the Department of Teacher Education and Outdoor Studies at NIH. His background includes an MSc in sports psychology and sociology from the University of Copenhagen (Denmark) and a Ph.D. in organizational psychology in sports organizations from Liverpool John Moores University (Liverpool, UK).

Niels has examined how organizational culture changes over time by focusing on subtle power relations. He has also outlined how destructive cultures develop in elite sports organizations and how individuals who break rules and norms can be reintegrated. This is in addition to many other research areas.

In this podcast we discuss Niels, Francesca and Martin’s recent research - The Sport Psychology Canvas: Designing, Adapting, and Documenting Sport Psychology Provisions in Men’s Football Academies in England.
