PERFORMANCE COACHING
Do you want to challenge yourself, grow, and live with greater alignment and impact?
We all have areas of our lives where we’re expected to perform - at work, in relationships, or within ourselves - but few people get the support to truly unlock their potential.
Drawing on my experiences as both an Olympic athlete and Performance Director, I’ve seen how the tools that help high-performing athletes face pressure with courage and integrity can transform their lives far beyond sport.
Through coaching, I help you develop the mindset and practices to navigate challenges, stay true to your values, and move confidently toward the vision of your best self.
My approach brings together performance psychology, values work, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Training, and practical philosophy. I’ve seen this blend create powerful results for leaders across business, academia, and sport - helping them become better leaders while staying true to their vision of who they want to be.
I am an accredited Senior Practitioner Coach/Mentor and Coach Supervisor with the European Mentoring and Coaching Council.

"Through his coaching, I gained a deeper understanding of my values at both the personal and professional levels, and how I could live these out daily in this new leadership position. Each session with Laurence felt profoundly grounding, leaving me feeling fully seen and heard, and prepared to take on the rest of the week with mindfulness and grace. Safe to say, his coaching continues to send ripples through my work within the athletics space, and I am so grateful to have learned from him."

"Laurence has a very calm demeanor that instantly makes you feel safe and listened to. He is thoughtful and intentional in creating a powerful space, and has an incredible ability to ask very powerful and pertinent questions that really make you stop and reflect. As a result of Laurence’s coaching, I have a lot more awareness of myself, my triggers as well as some strategies that I have continued to use post our sessions."

Developing thriving individuals and teams as the foundation for high performance
I work in both sport and business to help leaders and teams discover that this pioneering, human-centred approach is not just a moral imperative, but is also the competitive advantage they have been searching for.
In so many instances our practice still lags far behind what our best understanding of human motivation and behaviour tells us we should be doing. Through more than twenty years of involvement in elite sport I have been developing my approach to how to get the best out of individuals and teams. I specialise in applying cutting-edge psychological approaches to developing culture and improving performance, and I believe this is where the greatest gains are still to be made in any performance environment.
Aside from my freelance consultancy work, I am an associate consultant with two firms that align closely with what I am most passionate about-
KMP+ House of Mentoring, where I help clients design and run their own mentoring programmes, create and facilitate workshops, and coach participants of our accreditation scheme.
Persyou, where I coach school leaders to help them create better team collaboration and transform their organisational culture.
“Laurence delivered an exceptional coaching day that was inspiring, engaging and eye-opening. Focused on the themes of personal resilience and high performance behaviours, Laurence facilitated a fascinating and highly interactive session, teaching us about the power of values, the benefits of mindfulness and the importance of psychological safety. His calm and measured coaching style helped to create an open and supportive environment amongst the group and I would highly recommend Laurence to anyone looking to enhance individual or collective performance.”

“One of the most engaging and thought-provoking workshops I have experienced. The perfect mix of the underpinning theories, inspiring stories, and some experiential exercises to highlight just how much can be done to create thriving work environments and resilient team members."
