Sport trains what work demands
Sport has long been recognized as fertile ground for the development of transversal skills: structured sporting experiences, when accompanied by explicit reflection, foster the acquisition of behaviors related to collaboration, handling adversity and emotional regulation.
What turns a sporting experience into an effective learning journey is the process of intentional transfer: making the values at play explicit and connecting them to contexts other than the original one.
i•dive Sport Vision starts from this premise: its training programs use the values of sport — fair play, resilience, collective leadership — as a frame for developing the power skills most relevant in the professional sphere, translating them into observable behaviors within the organization.
Who the i•dive Sport Vision journey is for
The journey is designed for organizations that recognize in sport a system of shared values and want to use it as an intentional lever for developing people and company culture.
For those going through a difficult time
They have lost energy, motivation or direction. They are looking for a protected, stimulating environment to start again with confidence and rediscover the meaning of what they do.
For those working in high-pressure environments
They manage stress, fast decisions and heavy workloads. They want practical tools to maintain clarity, emotional balance and consistent performance.
For those facing a
professional or personal transition
They are changing role, structure or life stage. They need mental flexibility, new patterns of behavior and the ability to turn change into opportunity.
For teams and organizations that want to grow together
HR, people managers and leaders looking for a journey capable of developing cohesion, soft skills and organizational well-being through a shared, high-impact experience.
What changes with i•dive Sport Vision
Working with sport as inspiration and example means bringing into organizations something that traditional training programs rarely achieve: change that is lived, not just studied. People come out of the journey with a greater ability to collaborate under pressure, manage emotions at critical moments, make decisions with more awareness and sustain motivation over time.
The benefit is collective. When people grow together, the group becomes a resource. i•dive Sport Vision builds an organizational culture in which training for change is continuous, responsibility is shared and results are observable — not just declared.
What the journey includes
Teamwork and inclusion
Collaborating effectively by valuing differences, building trust and learning to depend on others, as in every team that truly wins.
02
Leadership and motivation
Leading by example, supporting those beside us and keeping our energy up even in the most challenging moments: the same qualities that set a captain apart from a mere starter.
Managing stress and emotions
Recognizing what you feel and acting with clarity even under pressure. Not eliminating tension, but using it, as athletes do in decisive moments.
Decision making and problem solving
Assessing situations quickly, choosing with awareness and finding concrete solutions when the margin for error is small.
05
Adaptability and spirit of sacrifice
Facing change with flexibility, commitment and a sense of responsibility. Knowing how to start again after a mistake, without losing direction.
Digital platform and continuity
Access to the i•dive platform provides up-to-date content, digital gyms, guided reflective experiences, themed webinars and digital badges for every participant. The work continues between one session and the next.
From the field to the workplace: how sporting values become behaviors
Every skill you train in the i•dive coaching journey stems from a specific sporting value.
Sport offers an extraordinarily clear framework of values — shared rules, defined roles, measurable goals, real pressure — in which behaviors become visible to those who live them and those who observe them. And what becomes visible becomes trainable.
Every session, every piece of digital content, every reflective moment on the i•dive platform is designed to make the link between the sporting value and the workplace behavior explicit, because that is where real transfer happens.
Fair play and respect for the rules
Integrity, respect for policies, healthy management of internal competition
Teamwork and different roles on the field
Cross-functional collaboration, inclusion of differences, ability to contribute even from less visible positions
Training, discipline, preparing for the game
Goal orientation, consistency over time, managing energy and engagement in the long run
Handling defeat and mistakes
Resilience, learning from feedback, ability to “get back in the game” after a setback
Leadership on the field (captain, experienced players)
Servant leadership, ability to motivate others, clear-headed decisions under pressure

The i•dive Sport Visionmethod
Sport produces real change when its values are made explicit and transferred intentionally. This is the logic of the F.E.I. model.
Focus — gaining clarity about where you are and where you want to go.
Effort — turning awareness into practice: coaching, digital content and athletes’ stories as stimuli to change real behaviors.
Insistence — change requires continuity. The i•dive platform accompanies each person between one session and the next, because growth comes from constant training.

Three journeys, one direction: sustainable change
i•dive Sport Vision journeys are designed to support people and teams in developing effective, lasting behaviors through a mix of professional coaching, digital content and authentic sporting inspiration. Each journey adapts to the organization’s pace and is structured in two phases: live sessions with certified coaches and ongoing activity on the i•dive platform.
Focused and Blended
For those who want to observe their own patterns, understand how they react under pressure and start experimenting with new behaviors.
- Sessions in the first 3 months (one per month), structured in three phases: activation, training, consolidation.
- Digital activities: curated content, guided prompts, webinars and reflections to develop awareness and openness
Continuous and blended (synchronous and asynchronous)
For those who want to train new behaviors in a context where group dynamics sustain motivation and support experimentation.
- Sessions in the first 4 months (one per month).
- Digital activities: themed webinars, tools for transferring learning into practice, progress monitoring
Progressive development, blended (synchronous and asynchronous)
For those who want deeper work: training new behaviors over time, with the group as a context for experimentation.
- Sessions in the first 6 months (one per month).
- Advanced activities: guided reflections, self-assessment, HR reports with insights and recommendations.

Why together:
Gruppo Pragma and Fortitude
i•dive Sport Vision was born from the collaboration between Gruppo Pragma, with the i•dive platform, and Fortitude, a company specializing in athlete representation and in building high-impact sports storytelling.
On one side, a structured, modular and customizable digital coaching model, based on the F.E.I. method and on years of experience in developing people within organizations. On the other, the ability to bring the authentic voices of athletes into the journey — not as decorative testimonials, but as living material for inspiration and reflection.
Together, we make sport a concrete engine of growth, well-being and development for people and teams. Because transformation comes through constant training, shared motivation and the ability to face challenges with clarity, determination and team spirit.
i•dive team of coaches
