What is good high performance coaching and leadership like? How
do you create rapport and trust with the athlete? What are the
best tools and methods for becoming a better coach? These are key
questions I have been wrestling in my coaching career and also
researched the topic in my sport psychology masters thesis. In
this episode I got a fantastic opportunity to wrestle with these
questions with Professor Cliff Mallett from the University of
Queensland, Brisbane, whose research has played a key role in
broadening my understanding of what it means to be a "good
coach". Tune in to this episode if you want to understand what
are the crucial ingredients in high performance coaching that
facilitate success, and how can you become the good coach!

in sport psychology and extensive practical coaching background.
Cliff has specialised in understanding the interdependencies
between people and the complexities of high performance contexts
to enable successful (winning) outcomes. He has coached many

psychology and coaching (University of Queensland and Technical
