What is an Olympic Experience Workshop – and Why Should You Book One?
When you hear the word "Olympics," what comes to mind?
Olympic medals. World records. Extraordinary human achievement.
But behind every Olympic moment is something even more powerful: the years of preparation, the mindset, the resilience, and the relentless pursuit of excellence — often in the face of setbacks most people never see.
At BackleyBlack, we bring those same principles to your organisation.
Through our Olympic Experience Workshops, you don’t just hear inspiring stories — you live the mindset that creates champions.
So, what actually is an Olympic Experience Workshop?
It’s not a motivational speech (though you’ll leave motivated).
It’s not just a training day (though you’ll leave with practical tools).
It’s an immersive, interactive experience that combines world-class storytelling with leadership lessons, mindset training, and team-building activities — all based on what it really takes to succeed at the highest level.
Led by Olympians Steve Backley OBE and Roger Black MBE, these workshops draw direct parallels between elite sport and business:
How to build resilience in tough times
How to stay motivated when goals seem distant
How small improvements (marginal gains) lead to major breakthroughs
How to create a winning team culture
How to perform under pressure, when it matters most
Why should you book one?
Because it’s different.
Most workshops skim the surface. Ours goes deeper — tapping into real experiences from the pressure cooker of world competition and translating them into lasting lessons for your business, team, or event.
Because it’s real.
This isn’t theory. It’s straight from the track, the field, and the highest levels of international competition — adapted for the challenges you face in leadership, sales, growth, and culture.
Because people remember it.
Stories stick. Emotions inspire action. Practical tools change behaviour. The Olympic Experience creates all three — meaning the energy, insights, and momentum don't just disappear when the workshop ends.
Who is it for?
Leadership teams looking to raise their game
Sales teams aiming for record targets
Businesses going through change or transformation
Conferences and away-days that need to inspire and unify
Anyone who believes that success is not an accident — it’s a decision, backed by mindset, preparation, and heart
