Echoing high-performance team development in the business world, sailing instructor Kristen Berry focuses on the more cerebral aspects of sailing and team dynamics. We had a fascinating discussion about this different approach to coaching sailing teams. Lots to take away from the conversation, including why when the helmsperson is yelling it usually means they are out of mental bandwidth (!) and why top teams are highly communicative but whisper quiet. Kristen is a 20-year US Sailing-certified instructor and founder of Annapolis-based Gale Force Sailing. He also works with the U.S. Naval Academy’s Basic Sail Training program and is advisory board member of New York’s Hudson River Community Sailing organization and executive director of Baltimore’s Downtown Sailing Center. I love the quote from Galeforce Sailing’s website: Sailing is a sport filled with challenges, chaos, and curiosity, and you should always strive for elegance. Hope you enjoy listening to this episode!
