SPORTS PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE MANAGERS

This chapter will discuss the fundamental need for sports performance analysis for high performance managers. In doing so, it will explore the nature of the performance environment and the need for performance management systems that convert multi-disciplinary performance analysis data into an inter-disciplinary end product that can be used by coaches and athletes. This remains a major challenge for performance managers who require strategies to compress unwieldy data sets into meaningful individual and group performance feedback. Finally, the section proposes an integrated model of performance management and analysis that can be applied to design, implement and measure the effectiveness of a performance review.
