Dr Steve Swanson recently had the opportunity to attend the Toronto Raptors training camp in Vancouver, Canada.
The Toronto Raptors are a member of the National Basketball Association and are coached by Nick Nurse, who Dr Swanson coached alongside in the British Basketball League.
Dr Swanson was an invited guest to the Raptors pre-season training camp in Vancouver, BC, and attended training sessions and staff meetings to learn more about the organisation’s dynamic culture and cutting-edge practices.
Discussing the visit, Dr Swanson said, “It was a wonderful opportunity to see first-hand one of the most innovative coaches in all of sport, and directly witness the culture shaping process for the Raptors organisation moving forward.”
The project is part of ongoing research on innovative cultures in the sport environment. Dr Steve Swanson has recently published a book entitled ‘Fostering Innovative Cultures in Sport’.
