Listening Walkaround — Sport & Athletics — Wigan
The conversations that matter in Wigan sport don't happen in meeting rooms. Danny Sculthorpe's walkaround goes to where they do happen.
Listening Walkaround for Sport & Athletics in Wigan
Real conversations in sport happen in specific places — in the corner of the training ground, walking to the car after training, in the gym when everyone else has gone. Not in a room with a facilitator and a flipchart. Danny Sculthorpe's listening walkaround works because it goes to those places rather than trying to manufacture the conditions for honesty in an artificial setting.
As a former Wigan Warriors professional rugby league player who has spoken publicly about his own suicide attempt, Danny moves through training grounds, club facilities and dressing room areas with a credibility that no outside trainer can replicate. Athletes and coaches talk to him differently — because he has been exactly where they are.
For Wigan's sports clubs and academies, the walkaround reaches the squad members and coaching staff who would never engage with anything more formal.
