Refocusing attention on the management and operation of systems designed to deliver elite sporting success, this book draws on the theoretical literature in implementation, organisation theory, leadership and complexity to provide an initial context for analysis and a stimulus for theory development. The first part focuses on the effectiveness of elite sport systems while the second explores the interface between the athlete and the sport development system. Cross-cutting themes also include the management of talent identification and coach development.
