Steve Borthwick: Leading Under Fire and What The Public Doesn't See (E345)

Steve Borthwick is the head coach of England’s national rugby team and a former international player known for his no-nonsense approach and deep tactical understanding of the game. In this episode, Steve discusses the philosophy behind his coaching style, focusing on the responsibility coaches have to make the game simple for players. He highlights how the journey to the top, much like climbing a mountain, is a gradual process, with each stage offering new lessons. He also reflects on the essential qualities needed for success, such as bravery, physical courage, and the willingness to fight for every opportunity. The episode touches on how resilience, physical courage, and trust are all non-negotiables, and how great coaching is about simplifying the chaos and letting players shine.🚨 PartnersHeights 👉 Get 20% off your subscription by using Code: HP20 here: https://hppod.co/20heightsHP Foundation 👉Do you want to kick-start an evolution that will change the lives of millions of children?
