🗣️❗️Jürgen Klopp: "I haven't missed anything in my life because I never thought about it. For 25 years, I went to weddings twice; one was mine, the other was 2 months ago.
"In 25 years, I went to the cinema 4 times, all of them in the last 8 weeks.
"As a coach, I went to a lot of countries but didn't see any of them; I only saw the hotel, the stadium, and the training ground...."
This is brilliant @BristolBears 👏🏻👏🏻 How rugby marketing should be done 🫡
Ready to be reacquainted in 2025/26 🤝

Part 2 of the blog about how coaches can use theming

Many of sport's great coaches have been storytellers.
The Power of stories to unite, inspire & drive success is central to any coach's craft.
Understanding how stories impact on human psychology is a game-changer for teams.

I’ve a 'coaching crush' on @dawnstaley
What stands out in this is her ability to be 𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 whilst upholding key principles as a person & coach.

Coaching is a unique journey- it'd be great to see more coaches spending time abroad & teams pushing coaching exchanges.
Your best young coaches experiencing contrasting tactics, learning from others & adapting skills?
= resilience, adaptability, confidence & growth.

“Battling the Waves” of Self-Doubt
A regular companion of head coaches, identifying the root causes, anticipating its arrival & minimising the effects of self-doubt is a critical tool coaches are required to master.
My blog on the subject:

“I have an awareness that my voice gets old”
Player empowerment is about HOW & WHEN:
Some considerations when speaking about this area with coaches:
🏰- A safe environment
🛤️- The path needs to have been laid
💭- Silent communication
🤫- Letting it play out
PTSD from half times, music in the locker-room & too many coaches.
Some great insights @Min9HalfTime telegraph.co.uk/rugby-union/…
Great to chat with & present to some Canadian coaches last week; authenticity, vulnerability, learning frameworks, closing the loop & front row clubs.

"I feel terrible for Jerod, because I put him in an untenable situation. I know that he has all the tools as a head coach to be successful. He just needed more time."
❓Interview process that hires & fires a promising coach in <1 year❓
❓What support was afforded ❓
