#125: Cody Royle — Author of "Second Set Of Eyes," "The Tough Stuff," and "Where Others Won’t," Head Coach at Where Others Won’t Inc., Former Head Coach of the Australian Football League Canada
We’ve had our fair share of coaches on the podcast on how to lead and guide people, but how do you lead and guide other coaches to improve their game?
Enter today’s guest, Cody Royle, a coach who’s dedicated his entire focus on improving other coaches through the ‘user experience’ of coaching.
Cody’s coaching career has taken him from playing Rugby in his home of Canberra, Australia, all the way to Toronto, Canada where he currently resides. Serving for over 10 years as a Head Coach in Canada’s AFL Aussie Rules, he set out with the goal to transform the league as a national afterthought, to a viable career path for aspiring athletes. During this time, Cody saw the opportunity to help leaders in both the sports world and business world. He met and interviewed hundreds of coaches around the world, and compiled much of his learnings into his first book Where Others Won’t: Taking People Innovation from the Locker Room to the Board Room.
The success of the book led to Cody hosting a podcast of the same name, and two other books The Tough Stuff: Seven Hard Truths about Being a Head Coach and Second Set of Eyes: How Great Coaches Become Champions.
Cody’s focus on the user experience, a term that’s usually reserved for those developing technology, brings a unique and most importantly, actionable set of guidelines for coaches to improve their craft.
This is another one you’re not going to want to miss, so with that…let’s bring it in!
