Beginning his career as a maths teacher, Prof Peters then switched to medicine and specialised in patients with severe and dangerous personality disorders. His focus is now on how the mind can enable people to reach optimum performance in all walks of life. Working with sportspeople at the top of their game, he gives them the confidence to come back from defeat and out-perform the opposition.
Prof Peters has been described as a “genius” by Team GB cycling coach Dave Brailsford and many decorated Olympians such as Chris Hoy, Victoria Pendleton and Bradley Wiggins have all attributed their success to him.

Examining motivation, confidence and communication, he will show that competition is as much in the mind as it is in the field or on the track – or in the office.
