Her work has influenced researchers, practitioners and organisations around the world. Examples of significant practical impact include her consultancy work with UK Sport, Sport England, Sport Scotland, as well as various Learning and Performance Organisations across the world (e.g., Formula 1, Red Bull APC, AIS, FA, US Soccer).
