From being Head Coach at the 2018 Hockey World Cup, to living and working across three continents, to leading teams to building new distribution channels I have come across many performance challenges. From going through the grief of losing two children and my son being diagnosed with a terminal disease I have had to overcome many personal challenges and go to the depths to keep moving forward. These highs and lows have shaped how I support leaders and businesses on their high-performance journey. I pride myself on providing simplicity, clarity and accountability to organisations that helps them truly connect as leaders and get out of their own way. Being curious and inquisitive by nature I observe, playback and guide teams to remove the blockers and leverage on what needs to be true for them to be successful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As a proud parent I want my son to follow what I do and not just what I say. I want him to see me growing every day, and living out my values.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I\u2019ve spent the last 25 years asking questions to individuals and teams to help them identify where they want to go and then helping them on how to get there. I am passionate about helping businesses and leaders find the right path, and then stay on it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Having been on a global talent program for one of the largest global insurance groups, consulted within financial services, built businesses and also coached hockey at a World Cup and Commonwealth Games, I have a wide spectrum of experience, knowledge and stories. I am obsessed with helping businesses, and individuals, live their legacy today and achieve what they are capable of. I sometimes struggle to turn my brain off as it constantly sees opportunities for greater impact, performance and fulfilment.<\/span><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; bg_type=&#8221;image&#8221; parallax_style=&#8221;vcpb-default&#8221; bg_image_new=&#8221;id^4097|url^https:\/\/www.sarahscottdesign.co.za\/bringyouragame\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/A-Game-Header_0000_mark.jpg|caption^null|alt^null|title^A-Game-Header_0000_mark|description^null&#8221; bg_image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221; bg_override=&#8221;full&#8221; parallax_content=&#8221;parallax_content_value&#8221; enable_overlay=&#8221;enable_overlay_value&#8221; overlay_color=&#8221;#000000C9&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1771879913450{padding-top: 140px !important;padding-bottom: 70px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1575398300037{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1575398099490{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1771873998090{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;background-color: #E8FF59 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1575399220241{padding-bottom: 60px !important;}&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;&#8220;I put a lot of emphasis on creating the right environment for everyone to be&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4079,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","dt_team_category":[],"class_list":["post-4088","dt_team","type-dt_team","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","description-off"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
