WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE
David Galbraith shares frank insights and funny personal stories on how to live your best life with courage and care. He draws on a wide range of experiences as a clinical psychologist, high performance mental coach of athletes from Super Rugby (Chiefs) to Olympic sports, youth worker, author, husband and dad.
Known as the HOGman, Habit of Greatness, he committed early on to be authentic and create his own framework for understanding ourselves, understanding others, and understanding the space between others. David built and then wrote about this in his book “Unleashing Greatness”.
David talks about with authenticity and honesty about courage: what it is and how we can step willingly into the unknown with intention. He also illustrates how being fixated on outcomes differs significantly from the mindset of mastery, and how it plays out in people’s lives.
David has seen many contrasting leadership styles through coaching. He identifies the one defining principle that led people to perform well under pressure in the key moments. And when leaders model this primary value, everything flows and performance takes care of itself. David shares life changing stories as a parent and from working alongside Dave Rennie at the Chiefs whose care of his people was absolute.
In explicit words, David talks about the courage it takes to care less about what other people think and more about what we think about ourselves – to be “uniquely weird”. As individuals and organisations, we can take steps to build a strong identity that acts as an anchor to ground us in tough times.
