Athlete Speakers is an Erasmus+ founded project dedicated to enhancing athletes’ communication skills, empowering them to raise their voices in public and supporting dual career opportunities. Being able to communicate effectively is an essential life skill of the 21st century, and has a positive effect on elite athlete’s careers. Having good communication skills is key to influencing others and creating powerful teams, and relationships where to join forces and achieve successful outcomes. Hence, communication is a valuable asset for elite athletes during and after their careers, as it can improve their team performance and open up opportunities for sponsorship, business, and job positions.
This online course is the main product of the project, an innovative tailor-made education and training programme that empowers elite athletes to become active through the improvement of their communication skills.
