Paul Clarke

The Leaders Coach

Paul Clarke is a seasoned coach with over 25 years of experience in sports performance, business development & management. He understands the complexities of leadership, having lived through the same challenges that today’s (and tomorrow’s) leaders face. His mission is to help leaders—whether you're a head coach, manager, or executive—transform the way you lead, from wrestling with daily tasks to mastering them with confidence as you build, and leave, your Legacy.

Leadership Mentoring

Paul’s approach is rooted in the belief that many leaders feel stuck, as though there’s a blockage preventing them from reaching their full potential. He refers to this as having “a golf ball stuck in your garden hose,” where adding more effort doesn’t always equate to better results. Instead, leaders find themselves spinning their wheels, trying to push through, without resolving the core issues holding them back.

That’s where Paul helps. He’s a trusted, independent ally who provides honest, meaningful advice—insights that others might not offer. His focus on Legacy Leadership is not about quick fixes or packaged programs. Instead, he focuses on creating long-term, sustainable growth. Paul believes that success comes from steady progress and daily efforts that build sustainable habits over time.

Leadership Coaching

Using his LUDO principle—Listen, Understand, Diagnose, and Offer guidance—Paul helps sports leaders gain Alternative Insights (A.I.) into their performance. Through his Legacy Leadership process, he works with clients on the 5C Principles of Legacy Leadership: Capability, Character, Competence, Care & Choices. This process helps leaders identify the root cause of their challenges, confront the truth, and find tailored solutions to enhance their performance.

Paul has made mistakes in his own career and learned the hard way that facing challenges alone can negatively impact both professional and personal life.

His biggest lesson? Don’t struggle in isolation. Having a guide & ally by your side is the difference that makes all the difference as you seek to be the difference.
