THE SETTER’S PERSPECTIVE

BEFORE
SETTING THE BALL,
YOU NEED TO
Read the game.

On court, the best decision is not the one that puts the setter in the spotlight. It is the one that puts the team in a position to score.

Ricardinho was a setter and captain. He needed to read the situation, know the people, manage possibilities and respond to what the game demanded — often in a fraction of a second.

That experience is the starting point for R17 Corporate. Stories and lessons from elite sport to discuss challenges companies also face: leading people, deciding under pressure and sustaining a standard of performance.

The context changes.
The commitment to the team continues.

THE TALK

HIGH PERFORMANCE
IN THE
CORPORATE WORLD.

Ricardinho connects his career and volleyball fundamentals to challenges at work. A sequence of thought-provoking ideas to generate insights, reflection and action.

01
DIRECTION AND DECISION

Is your aim aligned?

In Braço da Mira, the objective guides the movement. In Esgrima, a firm stance makes it possible to decide and act quickly. Two fundamentals for reflecting on clear direction and flexibility in a changing situation.

How can you change the movement without losing the objective?

02
EXCELLENCE IN EXECUTION

The detail plays a part too.

Positioning, focus and attention to the process make a difference in the overhead pass. In the talk, Ricardinho shows how small adjustments help us think about consistency and care in execution at work.

Which detail can your team no longer ignore?

Movimento Tigre · Chifre de Unicórnio · Pé de Bailarina
03
LEADERSHIP AND TEAMWORK

Help me help you.

The waiter hands the tray to the other person, rather than simply tossing it. The image conveys care for whoever receives your work. Together with the idea of two arrows becoming one, it opens a conversation about responsibility and collective effort.

Are you handing it to your partner or throwing it at them?

04
DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRESS

Discomfort creates comfort.

Facing challenges, seeking alternatives and learning from good references are part of development. The challenge is to stop waiting for the usual answer and look for another way forward without losing your identity.
