• The Performance Psychcast - Episode 53 - Commonwealth Medalist to Working in Sports Coaching and Business - Colin Wilson
    Dec 23 2024

    Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the Performance Psychcast. Today we are very fortunate to be speaking with Colin Wilson.

    Colin Wilson started his performance and coaching journey in sport from age nine, winning national and international age-group medals in Table Tennis from the age of 13, and two Commonwealth silvers, aged just 16.

    Colin was always curious from a young age, and fascinated by questions like, “Where does High Performance Really Come From?”. As a result of having two amazing sport-specific and philosophical mentors, Colin became a coach educator age 19. He coached England Women, Men, Girls and Boys and later his son Sam became England Under 21s No. 1.

    After gaining an Economics and Statistics Honours degree at UCL, he was asked to help coaches and coaching programmes in other sports too and worked on sport-wide development programmes in partnership with BASES, UK Sport, sportscoachUK (now UK Coaching) and the British Olympic Association. Working to develop Olympic level coaches was another wonderful opportunity and a further vertical learning curve.

    With further fantastic mentors and training in traumatology and psychodynamics he bridged the journey to becoming an executive coach and organisational leadership developer, and was invited to support Nokia, BT Global, HSBC, Barclays, Delphi, Unilever, a major political party, and more. He now specialises in developing senior leadership capability and supporting multi-stakeholder, multi-agency situations with significant human dynamics.

    Ultimately, he relishes helping people and teams to find themselves, their best direction/strategy and their optimal, adaptable development path over time to fulfil their desired aims.
