Fiji Rugby, Coaching Room Team Up

The Fiji Rugby Union has joined renowned corporate organisations and sporting bodies by teaming up with The Coaching Room.

And Fiji Airways Fijian 7s head coach Gareth Baber is among the many clients who are trying to unlock their full potential by joining the or­ganisation which was incepted in February 2006 by Australians Joseph Scott and Jay Hedley with the concept Together Everyone Achieves More (TEAM).

Other sports organisations teaming up with Coaching Room are Rugby Australia, New South Wales Rugby, Wallabies and Waratahs while cor­porates include our own international airline Fiji Airways, Optus, KPMG and many more.

Baber said: “As a sports coach and leader I am exposed to the numerous differing and diverse is­sues which can affect performance.

“Through the work I have accomplished with Jay I feel that I am beginning to have a greater understanding of these issues as well as those strategies which are required to enable an in­dividual and team to rationalise and overcome such problems.

“The focus of this work has very much sur­rounded my own coaching process and specifi­cally my own in built belief system.

“Through challenging this process and mind­set, I’m recognising how my own personality and characteristics play such a pivotal role in my coaching and particularly my relationships with my players.

“I believe that for anyone in a similar position, having someone in your management group with Jay’s qualities, skills and vision is fundamental in enabling both oneself and team unlock their potential.”

Everyone involved at The Coaching Room has a passion for helping individuals and organisa­tions to realising their fullest potential
