Frank Dick
(UNITED KINGDOM)
Dr. Frank Dick OBE Chairman Renowned as one of the best motivational speakers today, Frank Dick's presentations are highly amusing and anecdotal, challenging and inspirational, making uncomfortable listening for anyone prepared to accept second best. Coaching has been Frank's raison d'être for decades, inspiring world-beating performances from some of the top names in sport - Daley Thompson, Boris Becker, Gerhard Berger, Denise Lewis, Marat Safin and Katarina Witt. In business, he has helped develop a coaching culture in Barclays, British Telecom, Unilever, Shell, Abbey National and Rolls Royce. Frank has received the Golden Pin Award from the European Athletics Association (EAA) for his outstanding achievements in coaching and development, while Loughborough University awarded him a doctorate for his work in advancing the theory and practice of coaching in sport and business. Frank has held the post of Chairman of the British Olympic Coaches Advisory Programme (1983 - 1994), and Director of Coaching for the British Athletics Federation (1974 - 1994). He is the author of three major publications, 'Sports Training Principles', 'Winning' and 'Winning Lines', all classics in their fields. Franks contribution to sport and coaching has been recognised in being awarded an OBE in 1989, induction to the UK Coaches Hall of Fame in 1999 and the prestigious title UK Sporting Hero by Sport UK in 2001.
