With a racism scandal rocking English cricket, the latest episode of the SportsPro Podcast sees editor at large Eoin Connolly talk to Chris Grant, an independent Sport England board member and expert in change management.
Seeking to find the lessons from a torrid affair, the discussion covers how organisations can respond properly to reports of discrimination and protect people from abuse. Grant also outlines the structural reforms sports stakeholders should embrace, as well as explaining why an honest dialogue is vital to the industry’s future, culturally and commercially.
Then, SportsPro staff writer Rory Jones dials in from the Smart Cities and Sport Summit in Copenhagen to relay the key trends in event hosting and urban development.
