THE CHALLENGE COACH
High-Performance Coaching for High-Performance Business Results
Steve has been a professional coach for over 17 years. He first stepped into the world of coaching whilst he was stationed at the British Army's Infantry Battle School in Brecon. As an instructor there he utilised his understanding of coaching to get the very best from the young junior non commissioned officers (JNCO) as they trained for promotion to Sergeants.
Steve then went on to gain a degree in Leadership and Management whilst serving. Completeing his dissertation whilst on an operational tour of Afghanistan was almost as hard as the operational commitment of being there. he also qualified as a Leadership Mentor and Executive Coach. Through his career he also qualified as 'Master Coach' within the Army.
Steve is proud to have served in the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment (formerly the Queens and Royal Hampshire Regiment). Today the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment are known as the Tigers and live by the ethos of 'Fierce Pride'. Steve joined the Queens Regiment in 1985 and was soon off on his first operational tour to Belize in Central America. He has since served in most of the operational commitments the British Army has undertaken in the past 3 decades. Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan.
Steve promoted through the ranks and commissioned to Captain before leaving the services in 2013. Steve has had the privilege and honour to serve along side his fellow Tigers and is proud to remain part of the Regimental family today. He continues to live by the ethos of Fierce Pride and the standard of seeking always to be unreasonably good.
