The People I Coach
Since 1991, I have coached doctors, lawyers, dentists, accountants, pop stars, architects, TV personalities and all manner of different professionals as well as hundreds of retirees. I am privileged to have access to such widely differing and interesting people in my daily work.
But when they stand on the driving range mat, they are all human beings who have a desire to have fun playing the greatest game on the planet – golf. It is often their escapism from a busy professional life, balanced between responsibilities for work and family. A chance to engage in something completely different. Or for the retirees, a new, healthy and social challenge to sustain their vibrancy for life.
My role as a coach may be seen as delivering technical competence or mental strength. But really, if I’m doing my job properly, I deliver joy – both in the moment and in perpetuity.
