Gary LeBoff
UK's Leading Sports and Business Psychologist

Currently appearing in BBC 2's groundbreaking new series 'The Challenge', Gary Leboff is the UK's leading sports and business psychologist. 'The Challenge' placed eight amateur athletes in the toughest sports events in the world. These included The Polar Race (a 13 day trek to the North Pole in temperatures of minus 60 degrees), The Yukon (a non-stop 400 mile canoeing event across four days and nights) and climbing Mount Everest.

Training for such events usually takes years and a minimum 20-30 sessions of sports psychology. In view of time and logistic constraints surrounding 'The Challenge', Gary had just THREE sessions to prepare the competitors. All eight participants credited Gary with a rapid increase in mental resilience, a profound improvement in performance and a growing awareness of personal potential.

Due to the confidential nature of his work (and the public profiles of those concerned), it is not possible to reveal the identities of all Gary's sporting clients.

However he has worked with:
1. Premiership football clubs
2. International Golf Pros

Gary Leboff is one of the UK 's premier performance coaches. Working across the arenas of commerce and sport, his clients range from Business leaders to creative talents and Premiership footballers.

At a time when key individuals find themselves under increasing pressure to deliver world- class performance, external assistance is often required.

Steeped in the coaching, personal development and training environment, Gary brings a wealth of disciplines to bear. A Master Practitioner in NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), Gary also offers a powerful blend of Life Coaching, Gestalt and Inner Game techniques.

In the corporate arena, Gary focuses on a number of key areas.

Effective leadership is a vital ingredient of corporate success. World-class leaders start with themselves, self-leadership is essential in order to direct others. Through a range of leading-edge tools, Gary promotes self-discovery, harnessing reserves of internal power and potential for the benefit of teams, individuals and organisations.

Specifically, Gary 's leadership development techniques incorporate a number of building blocks:

1. role modelling - inspiring others through action
2. people focus - appreciating the true value of your team and maximising the potential of each individual
3. team building - generating morale, sharing goals, celebrating achievements
4. visioning - anticipating future business direction
5. communication - what to say, when and how

Gary 's work provides individuals and business leaders with a clear sense of focus. Raising awareness of long-held (though unconscious) patterns of feeling, belief and thought, Gary creates a platform for identifying compelling goals and creates the resources for achievement. In addition, Gary helps his clients take a productive view of conflicting commitments, generating an effective and sustainable work/life balance.

Working with athletes from diverse backgrounds, Gary 's brief may include turning a dysfunctional team into a winning unit, alleviating the pressure of stressful situations (e.g. penalty shoot-out) and preparing athletes for a hostile environment.
