As a Premier League and International football player for Tottenham Hotspur, Norwich City and Northern Ireland, Paul competed with and against the best players in the world on a daily basis which has shaped his understanding of his methodology of high performance. As a world-renowned expert in elite performance, Paul’s credibility comes from his unique combination of reaching the pinnacle of elite sport as well as being the first Premier League footballer to qualify with a Master’s Degree in Psychology.

Paul specialises in implementing the mental tools required to elevate the performance of leaders and teams from organisations across the world; especially in financial services, technology, and the professional services industry. He has recently worked with PWC, Grant Thornton, Aviva, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, NatWest, Microsoft, Cisco and many more.

The insights that Paul shares are even more applicable today in our remote and virtual workplaces, which help empower individuals to understand that our mindset and thinking habits unlock the required behaviours that are necessary for elite performance.

Paul shares his psychological framework from growing up in war-torn Belfast, Ireland alongside the strategies he implemented while performing under the intense scrutiny of 75,000 fans across the world. He is also an established broadcaster on TV and radio and is a published author.

The mental performance insights Paul shared once he qualified as the 1st Premier League player with an M.Sc. in Psychology supported a number of Premier League players to compete in the most prestigious and ruthless sports league in the world.

“It was great having Paul here today speaking to us because he underlined something vitally important – yes, our employees will learn technical skills while they work for us, but it is the broader skills which they need to succeed – resilience, tenacity and having real confidence in themselves.”
“I thought Paul did an excellent job of making us all evaluate how we motivate ourselves and how important our own personal lives are in achieving success. It was great to have him here today.”
“I thought Paul’s session was absolutely fantastic. We wanted to better understand what really drove success and what the difference was between average performance and top performance. Paul’s insights and personality drove that home to us in abundance today.”
“I had the opportunity to be in Paul’s wellness session, we really enjoyed it and there are so many synergies between elite performance and the corporate world.”
“Paul presented at our recent leadership development event – a carried audience of clinical and non-clinical leaders. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. The audience really enjoyed Paul’s engaging style, but more so his candid way of sharing real experiences to support leaders buildresilience. We hope to welcome Paul back soon!”
