At Third Factor, we’ve spent decades studying what makes people perform at their best. We’ve worked with world-class athletes, coaches, and business leaders to break down the science of resilience, collaboration, and high performance. And now, we’re bringing that expertise to life in a whole new way.
We’re thrilled to introduce The Peak Performance Leadership Experience, a partnership between Third Factor, WDHB, and the Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center (CVEATC). This immersive, three-day program is designed to help leaders develop the mindset and skill set to thrive under pressure—by learning from those who do it best.
Lessons from the world of elite performance
If you’ve ever watched an athlete prepare for competition, you know that greatness isn’t just about talent. It’s about preparation, the ability to pivot under pressure, and the relentless pursuit of improvement. In many ways, the challenges faced by today’s leaders aren’t so different. Markets shift, competition is fierce, and success often comes down to how quickly you can adapt, stay focused, and bring out the best in your team.
The Peak Performance Leadership Experience is built around this idea. Hosted at CVEATC—a premier training ground for Olympic and Paralympic athletes—this program isn’t just about sitting in a classroom and listening to leadership theories. It’s about stepping into the world of high performance, engaging directly with elite athletes and coaches, and applying what you learn in real-time.
What makes this experience different
Before participants even set foot at CVEATC, they’ll go through a personal skills assessment and a one-on-one coaching session to identify their strengths and growth areas. This ensures that every leader enters the experience with a clear understanding of what they want to work on and how they can get the most out of it.
Once on-site, the learning goes beyond traditional leadership training. Participants will:
- Train with Olympic athletes and their coaches – Gain firsthand insight into the mindsets and strategies that fuel world-class performance.
- Experience high-pressure scenarios – Step into challenges designed to build resilience, adaptability, and decision-making skills under stress.
- Develop a coaching mindset – Learn how to cultivate peak performance in others, just as elite coaches do with their athletes.
This isn’t just about individual growth—it’s about bringing back new ways of thinking and leading that will elevate entire teams and organizations.
Who this is for
The Peak Performance Leadership Experience is designed for leaders who want to push their limits. If you’re someone who thrives on challenge, who is looking to take your leadership to the next level, and who is willing to step into an environment where learning happens through doing, this is for you.
