🔥 Developing Sports Leaders of the Future. In today’s competitive job market, practical experience and networking are crucial for students aspiring to carve out successful careers. Recognising this need, the ThirdEYE International Sports Consultancy have introduced an innovative student-led business programme designed to cultivate the next generation of sports leaders. The “Complementing the Curriculum” programme not only equips students with practical skills and invaluable experience but also enhances their CVs and expands their professional networks. A unique progression pathway, mirroring the trajectory of a real-life corporate journey, sees sports students in their first year, take on the role of project workers. Here, they immerse themselves in various projects that allow them to apply their theoretical knowledge to real-life scenarios. This foundational phase fosters essential skills, such as teamwork, problem-solving, and project management, all while giving students a taste of the collaborative spirit that drives successful businesses. As students progress into their second year, they have the opportunity to advance to mid-level positions, such as account managers and team leads. In these roles, they are tasked with overseeing projects, mentoring newer members, and developing strategic initiatives. This hands-on experience allows students to refine their leadership abilities, gain a deeper understanding of business operations, and demonstrate their capacity for responsibility and innovation. By the third year, students who have successfully navigated the previous stages can aspire to senior executive roles such as CEO and Managing Directors. These positions are not merely titles, they empower students to make high-level decisions, shape business strategies, and drive projects that can make a significant impact. This final stage of the pathway prepares them for the complexities of corporate leadership and equips them with the skills necessary to manage teams and visionary projects effectively. The goal of ThirdEYE’s student-led business team is to enhance the employability of its members. By participating in this initiative, students develop a robust skill set and a diverse portfolio of experiences that enrich their CVs. Moreover, as they collaborate with peers, faculty, and industry professionals, they foster connections that will serve them throughout their careers. In conclusion, ThirdEYE’s student-led business team is an innovative platform that not only prepares students for the workforce but also instills a sense of confidence and leadership. By engaging in real-world business experiences and progression, students emerge ready to tackle the challenges of the professional world, equipped with the knowledge, skills, and networks they need to succeed. As they become the leaders of tomorrow, they carry with them the fundamental values of collaboration, innovation, and integrity that ThirdEYE stands for.

🔥Positive Outcomes… This why we do what we do! We were contacted by one of our ThirdEYE student graduates to provide him with a job reference based upon his performance within last years “Complimenting the Curriculum” (CtC) programme. Here’s what he had to say… “Thank you so much for the reference. And thank you so much for every opportunity you gave me within the CtC programme, it really is incredible. To have secured my first proper job, I really cannot thank you enough. All of the job interviews I have been through, they all love the CtC programme and it gives us students something very meaningful to talk about, whilst also being able to relate the interviewers questions back to our experience.” Impressive right?!?!
