Confidentiality in sport

Before sharing, you deserve to know who will see the information and the limits of confidentiality.

Why this shows up in sport

Selection and employment relationships can make informal sharing especially harmful. Qualified professionals should explain confidentiality and lawful exceptions clearly.

Questions to sit with

You do not need to answer these online. MindsMelt does not collect or score them.
