Today's guest is an international speaker, best selling author, and co-host of The High Performance Podcast. He has consulted in education, business, sport and the public sector, with England Rugby, Virgin, and the Royal Marines to name a few. He commenced his visiting Professorship within the Organisational Behaviour Division at Manchester Metropolitan University, Faculty of Business in September 2010. In addition to supporting the business undergraduate programme, he also contributes to the Masters of Sports Directorship programme. The High Performance podcast has seen him interview Steven Gerrard, Sir Clive Woodward, and Matthew McConaughey to name a few world class guests.

Renowned equestrian coach, Caroline Moore, offers a wealth of insights into her coaching philosophy and the profound significance of accuracy, safety, and a systematic approach to horse training. In our conversation, Caroline discusses her method, her inspirations, and how she skillfully employs technology to enhance her coaching. Finding the Winning FormulaA unique aspect of Caroline's coaching model is how she breaks down performance into manageable bits through performance profiling. This method was first introduced to her by Sir Clive Woodward, and she has adopted it, incorporating all elements - large and small - of rider and horse performance that can contribute to creating a winning formula. Her training focuses not on becoming a pro rider but on efficiently improving horse performance at any level. By working on rider balance, accurate riding, and finding the level of education that suits both, rider and horse, Caroline believes that one can achieve remarkable results. Tapping into the Power of Technology Recognizing the power of technology, Caroline embraces the use of video analysis and slow-motion captures during her coaching sessions. She facilitates constructive comparison studies between different riding rounds, demonstrating how time and strides can be significantly saved when the riders are kept balanced, and their ride is kept accurate. Maintaining Horse WelfareIn her discussions, Caroline repeatedly underscores the importance of the horse as an integral partner in the sport of eventing. She emphasizes that horse welfare should never be forgotten and that the joy of working with horses and their training should not subside. She is passionately vocal about ensuring safety and horse wellbeing and believes that drawing owners' attention to these fine points can bring a significant shift in how the expenses of running a yard are perceived.Coaching for the FutureCaroline is forging a path forward by initiating her own groundbreaking programs to equip riders with the knowledge needed to excel in their field. By teaching them how to balance riding and yard management successfully, she hopes to make a long-lasting impact in the world of equestrian coaching.Beyond her substantial contributions to teaching riders, Caroline Moore has much to say about running a successful yard, maintaining horse welfare, and utilizing technological tools to enhance her coaching. Sharing her wealth of knowledge helps inspire her students and other coaches by offering a practical, systematic, and compassionate approach to the art of horse riding. In the end, Caroline Moore's underlying message is clear: dedicating oneself to understanding the horse and working passionately can overcome the toughest challenges. Her dedication to her craft inspires many in the equestrian community to strive, not just for winning, but for a kind, systematic and balanced approach to their equine partners.Resources for this episode: Caroline Facebbok page: https://www.facebook.com/carolinemooreeventcoachTIMESTAMPS00:00 Introduction and Guest Background00:59 Caroline's Early Life and Introduction to Horses02:36 Caroline's Journey into Professional Riding03:30 Transition from Riding to Coaching05:19 The Importance of Understanding Horses09:52 Caroline's Coaching Philosophy and Approach14:16 The Role of Structure and System in Training16:01 The Importance of Experience and Learning from Others20:30 Caroline's Book and Its Impact25:30 SucFollow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/danbizzarro/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/DanBizzarroWebsite - https://www.dbeventing.co.uk

Every one of us has dreams. A desire to make a difference on the things that matter to us. A vision for change, from the project we're working on to our local community. Without action, a vision will merely be a dream. But a vision that many people believe in? Now that can change the world – ask any great leader. So how do you get this buy-in? Should that be the first step? Or is it something that follows only once you have a vision you can share with others? That's what we're exploring in the latest episode of The Green Room podcast with examples from elite sport and the business world. Our guests, World Cup-winning former England rugby coach Sir Clive Woodward, and executive coach and Deloitte director Jess Dooley, know all about the role that leaders and teams play in realising a vision and what it takes to get there. We ask them, does it all start with having a clear vision? Or do you need to get buy-in first? How do you sell your plans to people around you? And do you need to adapt your style to bring different types of people with you? Do you build your ideas up from testing or sell them in first? Do people buy into a leader before they buy into a vision? What if the team don't agree on our vision or don't buy into our method to get there? Do you need both to succeed?  What if you have buy-in but no clear vision yet – is that an issue? And what techniques can anyone apply help make their plans a reality? For this episode of The Green Room, we ask: What comes first, vision or buy-in? Tune in to find out: How team dynamics influence (nearly) everything How Sir Clive sold his vision to transform England rugby Jess' take on whether teams or leaders should lead on buy-in If business should learn from sport or if sport can learn from business   Enjoyed this episode?

Lawrence sits down for a one-to-one chat with former England captain, Martin Johnson, as they mark the 20th anniversary of lifting the Webb Ellis Cup in Australia. Taking the chance to reminisce, Lol and Johnno recall the why the game that made them most nervous was actually in the pool stages of the tournament, how they convinced Sir Clive Woodward to change the training programme mid-way through the campaign and what winning the World Cup has meant to them on a personal level. And as former Head Coach of England, Johnno also shares his views on what the current team need to do to progress their achievements at the RWC2023, as the pair also examine whether their own historic win should have left a better legacy for the game. Plus, there are stories about Lawrence and Johnno's first time on tour as room mates, life in the England camp in 2003 and their most treasured memories from their rugby careers.

Sir Clive Woodward or Eddie Jones? Sir Steve Hansen or Warren Gatland? Plus what about Doctor Sherylle Calder?

James reflects on his conversation with Sir Clive Woodward and discusses building elite performance tech teams, what it takes to win, and how to set and enforce high standards. 

Today on the podcast we have Sir Clive Woodward, Grand Slam winning international rugby player and British and Irish lion, accomplished businessman. He was England's first professional rugby coach and led England to become 2003 World Championships in Australia, where Johnny Wilkinson kicked that iconic drop goal against the Aussies to clinch it for England.    He won 12 consecutive games against Southern Hemisphere sides, which was unheard of for a Northern Hemisphere side to do back in 2003, and I'm not sure if that will ever be repeated again. He was Director of Sport for Team GB at the Beijing 2008 Olympics and the London 2012 Olympics, and he's now busy producing a high performance talent factory within British Snow Sport, with the aim of producing that first gold medalist for Team GB.    In this episode we're of course going to talk about that iconic drop goal and what was going through Sir Clive's head at the time, but we're also going to focus on building elite performance tech teams, what it takes to win, and how to set and enforce high standards.    I hope you enjoy.     -----------------------------------------------------------------   Find Sir Clive: https://www.clivewoodward.com/ https://uk.linkedin.com/in/sirclivewoodward   Find James: https://www.linkedin.com/in/acceleratingexcellence/ https://www.instagram.com/jamesaking_/ https://jamesaking.com/   The Mindset App: While the app is under development, we have decided to provide access to the full content for free on YouTube for a limited time.

Maggie Alphonsi is one of the leading figures in women's sport. A Women's Rugby World Cup winner with England in 2014, she won 74 caps for her country, scored 28 tries and became known as 'Maggie The Machine' for the relentlessness of her tough tackling. Born with a club foot, she was brought up by a single mother of Nigerian heritage on a north London estate, and used to fight other children, including boys, in a bid to prove herself. Through rugby she was able to express her physicality and she relished the challenges the sport posed. Today she is a role model for others as she helps pioneer a greater female presence in the men's game and champions female participation in rugby and beyond. An MBE, she is one of ITV's Rugby World Cup pundits alongside Sir Clive Woodward and Jonny Wilkinson, and is a Telegraph columnist. Here she tells the remarkable story of her rise to becoming a household name, that includes tackling Owen Farrell and the comedian Jack Whitehall, and discusses her love of a sport that she acknowledges faces serious challenges in the form of concussion and its effects.

Often people think to achieve what they want in life is about finding a magic bullet, but as World Cup winning coach Sir Clive Woodward explains – frequently it's just about understanding the basics. Those things you absolutely have to get right to succeed in a particular project or goal.This might sound obvious – but actually it turns out it is incredibly common for people within teams, businesses and organisations not to know the basics of what they are trying to do – and that even applies at the top level of elite sport.Full Length conversation: https://www.simonmundie.com/blog/sir-clive-woodward-cultureMyTwitter: https://twitter.com/simonmundieInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/simonmundie/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-mundie-89379114/And for the 'Mundie on Monday' newsletter - featuring three of the best Life Lessons from four years and 200 of these conversations - head to simonmundie.com (where you can also drop me an email)Please do share this episode - it makes a big difference in helping people find this podcast.Thank you.

Sir Clive Woodward is a winner. He is best known for managing the England rugby team, taking them from world #6 to a world cup win. In this revealing interview, he explains that there is no difference between managing a sports team, a business or an investment team. It's all about managing people. Winning teams are made up of winning individuals - you can persuade the individuals in a team to strive to improve performance and the team will benefit. He is a proponent of continuous learning, and his team members must be teachable. I was fascinated by his management philosophy and investors and business people can learn so much from sport. No detail goes unchecked in his quest for 1% gains - he he explains why the team's second half performance improved when they changed strips at half time. You don't need to be a rugby fan to enjoy and learn from this exposition of what makes a winning team.

Welcome back for 2022 and we're giving a nod to the pending Six Nations series by travelling north and interviewing rugby royalty in the form of Sir Clive Woodward, the former England and British and Irish Lions player and coach...and of course that little thing that happened in Sydney back in 2003. We tackle the politics of being England head coach, the difficulties of coaching the Lions and we dive into Clive's time when he was living in Manly in the 1980s and playing for the Marlins against powerhouses like Randwick and being told to "take it up"! Did this playing stint in Australia help inform his approach to winning the Rugby World Cup and what is his view on the current state of rugby union in Australia?Matt also brings us up to date on the pending release of the film and what we can expect in 2022. Dig in!

Sir Clive Woodward's favourite mantra has to be 'TCUP'- Thinking Correctly Under Pressure. It's about thinking through potential hurdles so that when things do go awry - you are better equipped to be able to navigate them. Sir Clive's England showed the power of TCUP when winning the 2003 Rugby World Cup at the death. Clearly the possible unexpected scenarios that you could face are limitless - the pandemic has shown that - but it is the process of thinking through possible eventualities that is key. You are training your mind to be ready to think clearly when things take an odd turn.Follow me:on instagram https://www.instagram.com/simonmundie/on twitter https://twitter.com/simonmundieFor the 'Mundie on Monday' newsletter - featuring three of the best Life Lessons from three years and over 170 of these conversations - head to simonmundie.comPlease do share this episode with anyone who may benefit, and rate and review wherever you get your podcasts.

An incredibly open, honest and vulnerable conversation where Simon shares in his calm and humble way his story from being a passionate sports person and having an early career as a sport teacher right through to bringing Brazilian style football principles to the UK as well as influencing football worldwide, consulting on films and working with some of the most famous footballers the world has seen. In his own words he was a ‘man with a mission'.  This brought its highs as well as its lows. In my mind Simon is a student of football as well as life and gives great insight into how you can rise from hitting rock bottom. He gives living proof you can change the way you approach your life if you take responsibility and action. It is a heartfelt story that will definitely make you think about who you are, what you do, how you do it and ultimately what success is in life and sport. It was a real privilege and honour to have Simon as the 50th Sport Stories Podcast guest. A must listen!!!   If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

Due to an experience of being ‘dropped' I decided to take up something that was just reliant on the watch (running) My hero was Terry Cochrane  - as a footballer he liked to run at people and take them on.  I therefore saw football as running at people and taking them on was the way to play football (not everybody liked this!) I decided to take up Athletics – but wasn't very good or by any means the fastest. After a knock back of not being included in the school cross country team – I become very determined. At times I wish I had carried on with football but Athletics taught me a life lesson – implementing key performance principles consistently and routinely irrespective of talent will get you somewhere. Stoics and Spartans I enjoyed reading from a young age and finding out about people and their lives My edge for training dropped at university but I threw myself into my studies I applied the principles developed in my early years and gained a 1stt in my degree. If you apply yourself to things you find hard and work at them – you can be successful. I became a teacher – a bit by default. I re discovered my interest and passion for football (and coaching) by taking the U8,9,10, 11 in the school I worked at. I became great friends with Juninho when he played at Middlesbrough due to a shared love of football. I was not satisfied in ‘dishing up for them' what everyone else did. I wanted to find out the best way and provide it where I could I wanted the absolute best. I hunted here there and everywhere for those children Being the best was my attitude to sport for many years – it wouldn't be today. I looked back into the history of sport. I really liked working hard and winning. This view has changed as the years went on It was an amazing 5-6 weeks in Brazil…. The detail and work ethic in Brazil was clear to see and was not what I was led to believe it would be (people just playing on the beach) Coe had intrigued me as he was an early user of sport science and built a team around him. Brazil had better psychology services as far back as 1958… then we have had up until 2014 ish World Cup. When I started on the Brazilian journey I was a school teacher/ good person. I was though a man on a mission when returning. My character changed and my ego got in the way. I had to win and dominate …..but it was never enough really! All the business success – not of it is any good if you are not happy with yourself I set up a preschool programme, and also bought a football club. Nothing exists in vacuum and things changed I then went on a mini adventure with Sir Clive Woodward working at Southampton FC My why wasn't a healthy one – it was to show I could achieve I took on the establishment of football I had some big ‘ding dongs' with the FA. I fronted it ok but it had an effect on me (negatively) I had some real highs working with Garforth Town Towards the end of 2000's my mental health was deteriorating The things I had enjoyed in the beginning I had stopped doing – the coaching! I wrote a few books and consulted on Movies, and things were going off on different tangents. The scope and level all become too much for me. I had stopped enjoying it and started drinking to self-medicate. It was a long spiral down. At my lowest ebb in 2012 – sold everything to Rupert Lowe My health and family life were not good at the time. I wasn't in a rational state of mind for quite some time.  I wasn't sure how much longer I would live! In recovery – 18 months not working. Took stocked of everything. Where I had been and what my priorities were. In many cases in life - from some of the worst times of your life - come the best. Strategies I used – taking help and listening to other people (which I hadn't done before) Ego had become my enemy – the more successful I had got the less I listened. I was at ground zero. I had to recognise and come to terms with the fact my own thinking and actions had got me to the position I was in. It's been 8 yrs or so since ground zero – I have had the happiest and best years of my life in every respect Proudest moments – I beat Seb Coe before I packed in (over 100 meters), Overcoming challenges within my degree, Taking 53 kids from Leeds out to Brazil (1998) Winning football matches is intoxicating and see players that you work with – play well! I really value being part of the Coaching chain ot many players. Things I enjoy most today is continuing to work on myself and my learning as well as encouraging others in their development and learning. I don't want to get caught in the highs and lows anymore. My personal philosophy is that football is a game for fun. We could lose the essence of the sport itself and the history and traditions. I would love to engage with some working-class communities or areas with less provision. They seem to be getting distanced and disenfranchised with the sport. I would love to do something alter in my life if I could. I am a pupil myself. My passion for football came back after a year or so. Initially I blamed football for some of my problems. My problems were all of my own making. Almost every life lesson you can get out of sport. Sport is amazing!! Take the harder and longer route. Don't cut corners, You will learn more! There are so many factors involved in achieving success. Learning in wonderful. For me learning is linked to happiness. I didn't intend to be an entrepreneur. How could I get more people playing this way. More focus on the ball. More creative. More imaginative. I used to turn to old biographies for business tips. For example, Walt Disney. Do what you love and what you are passionate about. If I had my time again I would get business mentors and people around me to keep me in check and good order. Get older and more experienced people around you – particularly people who don't say what you want them to and will challenge you. Based on Jim Rohn quote – ‘Spend more time working on yourself than working' I spend a lot of my time writing informally as well as journaling. Quote by Elbert Hubbard: Self-discipline is - ‘The ability to make yourself do what you should do, when you should do it, whether you feel like it or not' Success is… Number 1 - Make a list each day of the things that must be done.  Number 2 – Do the things on that list Don't make footballers – make good people. If ego is the enemy – continue to work on yourself, practice self-awareness and reflection. Taka counsel of those around you - how are you doing and how are you behaving. Have a mentor that is comfortable to challenge and possibly fall out with you.   Quick fire questions: The books that you would recommend are?   Holy Bible by Collins Success: In Sport and Life by Percy Wells Cerutty The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People: Revised and Updated by Stephen R.

In today’s 40 Minute Mentor episode, we’re joined by the World Cup winning England Rugby coach and former Director of Sport for the London 2012 Olympics, Sir Clive Woodward. After spending his childhood with big dreams of becoming a professional footballer, it was playing rugby at his local club as a kid that started Sir Clive down the path to becoming the first England Coach to lift the Rugby World Cup in 2003. What people don’t always know is that rugby only went professional in the late 90s. And while Sir Clive was playing for England and the British Lions in the 1980s, he was also doing his ‘day job’, running his own Finance & Leasing company. As you’ll hear in this episode, he has since applied much of what he learned in the boardroom to his sterling work on the pitch. During our conversation, we cover some really fascinating topics, including: - How running a successful business is fundamentally the same as coaching a winning Rugby team. - Why you need to become comfortable with pressure if you want to be able to handle it effectively. - And the importance of creating a culture where everyone feels comfortable enough to contribute, no matter how controversial their ideas might be. Sir Clive has achieved so much over the years and it was an absolute honor to speak to him for this podcast. No matter whether you’re an avid Rugby fan or you’re simply hungry to succeed in your career, we know you’ll benefit to much from Sir Clive’s advice and insights throughout this episode. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this episode, so please do get in touch at james@jbmc.co.uk If you want to find out more about Sir Clive, take a look at his LinkedIn profile - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sirclivewoodward If you want to find out more about Sir Clive’s Apex2100 Ski Academy, head over to – https://apex2100.org/

The Raging Bull story began back in 2003 when England rugby player and World Cup winner Phil Vickery came up with the idea of a clothing brand whilst sitting around his kitchen table with friends. Nicknamed the Raging Bull by Sir Clive Woodward after his rampaging style of play, he had the perfect brand name for his new sportswear company. The embryonic company started off supplying team kit to rugby clubs and the quality and service meant its reputation grew fast. Meantime Phil concentrated on his stellar rugby career which led to him captaining his country at the 2007 World Cup and a British & Irish Lions tour to South Africa. It was during 2007 that Phil decided to branch out into leisurewear as a sensible step in growing the brand. He appointed Shannon Mercer as MD who bought a wealth of experience from the retail world. The leisurewear collection started with a core of rugby inspired tops and T-shirts which all reflected the heritage of the sport whilst retaining an easy to wear wide appeal. In this episode of the MenswearStyle Podcast we interview Raging Bull Founder Phil Vickery about when he first found rugby at a young age, his sporting achievements, and how his lifestyle clothing brand Raging Bull was born. Phil thrives on being the underdog and finds motivation when people tell him it cannot be done. Our host Peter Brooker and Phil also chat about what it's like starting a business in the fashion world, the importance of growing at your own pace, celebrating men of all shapes and sizes, and how standalone stores, retail partners and eCommerce sales all play their part in the recipe for success.Whilst we have your attention, be sure to sign up to our daily MenswearStyle newsletter here.

The importance of being clear on where you want to go in life and how to get there with Olympic gold medallist Ben Hunt-Davis. Ben turned himself from an also-ran in the rowing world to a gold medal winner by asking himself just one question, over and over again, and applying it in every area of his life: Will it make the boat go faster? Ben’s approach passed into sporting performance folklore and has been referenced by other DTMTS guests including Sir Clive Woodward. After listening to this episode, hopefully you'll be able to think of a similar question relevant to you and any area of life that you want to progress in. In this episode Ben and Simon talk about: • Why setting clearly defined goals is crucial • Choosing to plan ahead rather than simply being reactive • How to motivate yourself and perform even when you don't feel like it • How to build empowering beliefs and ignore the internal and external naysayers • How to separate fact from interpretation and choosing your language skillfully.

How to create a winning culture with in sport, business and life with Sir Clive Woodward. Clive was appointed England coach in 1997, and he went about transforming the culture of the team, using many of the lessons he had learnt running a small business. Results steadily improved until England were unquestionably the top team in the world, a goal Clive had set right at the outset of his tenure, and they rounded things off by lifting the Webb Ellis trophy in 2003, coping brilliantly with the pressure of being tournament favourites. In this episode they talk about many of the lessons that Clive shared to help take England from underachievers to the best in the world. Clive explains the similarities between managing England and running a small business, and why all high achievers never stop looking to learn and work on themselves. He explains the difference between sponges and rocks, and why it’s vital to be the former and not the latter. They discuss 'TCUP'- thinking correctly under pressure- and how it can be employed in any sphere of life. This episode was recorded shortly before the London Bridge attack, and Clive actually explains how thinking about TCUP could help if caught up in an incident like that. They talk about 3D learning and why knowing what the basics of your business is both crucial and also rare. Clive also gives his assessments of the 2019 England team who reached the world cup final, and compares them to his Cup winning 2003 team.
