Building an Impactful Learning Environment: Darren Lewis

Darren Lewis talks through his career in performance analysis and the methods he uses to build a learning environment that holds up under pressure.

He covers running analysis bureau departments and in-house team departments, and the differences between them that are not obvious until you have done both. Much of the session deals with people rather than software: managing expectations, handling the relationship between an analyst and a head coach, and protecting workflows when the environment keeps changing.

There is a lot here for anyone moving from doing analysis to leading it, and for coaches who work with analysts and want to understand what makes that relationship work.
