Preparation
The work starts before the decisive moment. Repeating, correcting and improving turn ability into consistency.
A talk about collaboration, trust and collective responsibility. From high-level trampolining to Cirque du Soleil, Amadeu Neves brings a clear idea: individual excellence only matters when the whole works.

Amadeu spent around 20 years involved in trampolining, became a world champion and worked in four Cirque du Soleil shows. Different settings, united by preparation, repetition, coordination and trust.
His talk shifts the focus from the visible performance to the work that makes it possible — and from doing your own task well to taking responsibility for the collective result.
The work starts before the decisive moment. Repeating, correcting and improving turn ability into consistency.
Different roles, one result. Understand who depends on your work and how your decisions affect the people around you.
Communicate, ask for help, correct and continue when something goes wrong — without lowering standards.
Look beyond your own task. The question is not only “Did I do my part well?” but “Did the whole work?”

“Being excellent individually does not guarantee an excellent collective result.”
