#13 - Ken Lynch, The HPAD Guru
Manage episode 436013078 series 3583127
Today I welcome an old mentor of mine (of sorts), Ken Lynch to the show.
One of my roles at NZF was the HPAD (High Performance Athlete Development) Manager, where I reported into Ken, in his role at HPSNZ as the National HPAD Manager.
Prior to his time in NZ, Ken worked at the Ireland Institute of Sport Head as well as the Olympic Team Manager for Triathlon Ireland at the London Olympics.
Ken has since moved across the ditch and is now the National Performance Pathway Manager for Australian Sailing.
Unlike traditional guests of the pod, Ken offers a unique insight across the systems, pathways and components of our “transitioning athlete”, which is another way of saying the HPAD space.
