Beyond the Game: The Mental & Physical Demands of High Performance

Jim Allenby is a high-performance coach who translates sports preparation and review practices into performance gains for elite athletes and senior executives.
He arrived at this work through a long playing and coaching career in cricket; years of interviews, TV and radio exposure, and repeated backstage experience with athletes made him notice a gap - few practitioners help already-good performers get measurably better. That gap led him to apply athlete preparation and review systems to business leaders and to begin writing and packaging those ideas.

His practical credibility comes from around 20 years playing cricket, professional media experience, coaching a number of Australian cricketers including players who compete in the IPL, and recently beginning a parallel practice for executives - roughly the last two years for the executive work. He also runs several businesses while building a portfolio of articles and media appearances to support his coaching brand.

Day to day he designs and runs preparation, performance and review processes for professional athletes and for CEOs, directors and senior executives; he coaches on in-competition preparation, post-performance review, and mental and routine practice. He regularly works with international athletes and Australian cricketers, and he adapts the same structures for executive clients seeking measurable performance improvement.
