Glen Murdoch at work

Hi, I’m Glen

Teacher first. Coach for life.

I started coaching under-16 cricket in 1987, the year after I finished playing it. I became a teacher in 1991 and was lucky enough to be named Teacher of the Year. Along the way I coached the Victorian Women’s Cricket team to the 1996 Australian Championship and worked as skills coach for the Australian Women’s Cricket team.

Sport psychology hooked me early, and that curiosity turned into a career built on one question: why do some people and teams perform when it matters, and others don’t? In 2011 I founded The Life Coaching College to help thousands of others learn to ask that question well.
