The essence of A Coach's Journey is to discuss lessons from leadership, conflict and the challenges of elite coaching and to present my learnings from those experiences.


Considered typical norms of professional coaching will challenge the reader as I reflect on real career experiences in professional coaching. Success and failure are discussed as consequences of far-reaching emotional responses that have impacted my personal and professional well-being.


This is a "warts and all" look at key moments, actions and associated misgivings of decisions. Those coach decisions have been presented as critical to personal and career development, while the organisation has been challenged, on their part, in terms of their compassion and the ownership of those outcomes. Both amateur and professional coaches will benefit from this book that presents the diverse scope of coaching, applied learnings and their part in your coach development.

Anderson, Steve J.: - "Steve's knowledge and understanding of elite level coaching and highperformance management is outstanding. He has proven success across both codes (Rugby Union and Rugby League) while his dedication to finding and shaping skilled athletes and human beings makes him a rare commodity in sport. I have been privileged to witness his coach mentoring skills that consistently demonstrate his ability to nurture and graduate talent to professional ranks." Marcel Brache (rugby professional; national USA rugby representative) Steve's coaching experience spans three decades in academy, high performance and elite coaching and he holds high-performance coaching accreditation in both rugby codes. Steve's initial professional coaching appointment (1993) to the Gold Coast Australian Rugby League franchise was followed by roles with the Western Reds and Melbourne Storm (NRL 1999 Grand Final winners). Steve also held the position of assistant coach with the Australian Kangaroos, which won the 2000 World Cup. After the Rugby League World Cup, Steve headed to the UK Super League firstly with Leeds Rhinos before accepting a head coaching position with Warrington Wolves. Since 2003, Steve has held coaching and high-performance roles with Glasgow Warriors, Scottish Rugby Union, and Irish Rugby Union that have seen him coach in major competitions around the world including the European Cup, Celtic League, Six Nations Championship, and World Cup campaigns. Steve returned to Australian rugby (2012) holding high-performance positions with the Western Force Super Rugby franchise and Rugby Australia.
