Meet Paul Clarke

Guiding leaders in elite sport by leaning into 25 years experience in Sports Performance & Business.

Who I Work With

You’re the one everyone turns to.
But who helps you make better decisions, align your people, and lead without friction?

You might be:

  • A Director of Football/Rugby/Other Sport, Head of Performance, Sporting Director, or CEO in elite sport

  • Leading high-stakes teams under public pressure

  • Feeling the drag of decision fatigue, culture issues, or fractured alignment

  • Performing… but at the cost of your time, energy, or clarity

You’re not broken. You’re just stretched.
That’s where I come in.

What I Do

I help elite sports leaders:

✅ Lead decisively under pressure
✅ Reduce cultural friction and internal noise
✅ Make faster, clearer decisions
✅ Strengthen staff alignment and cohesion
✅ Maintain standards without constant enforcement
✅ Lead without burning out

✅Craft and leave a positive legacy of your leadership

This is not coaching as you know it.
This is strategic partnership, structured around your leadership reality.

The ‘Legacy Leadership Stack’

Most of the leaders I work with aren’t failing—they’re winning.
But the cost of that success is often hidden: constant decision-making, cultural friction, political noise, and a creeping sense of burnout.

The demands of leadership at the top aren’t just tactical—they’re emotional, relational, and deeply personal.

What you need isn’t more theory or another leadership course.
You need a strategic partner - someone who helps you think clearly, act decisively, and lead without friction.

That’s what Legacy Leadership is built for.

“Working with Paul helps me simplify some of the most complex decisions I was facing. Game-changing clarity.
”
— Rob P., Director of Rugby.
