“Our job as a coach is to find out why the swing has changed, because the only way you can fix it is by identifying the real bottleneck, the real constraint. But without being reactive.”
This is a special episode only available to our podcast subscribers, which we call The Mini Chief. These are short, sharp highlights from our fabulous CEO guests, where you get a 5 to 10 minute snapshot from their full episode.
In this edition of the Mini Chief we feature a snippet from our Best of Series with Golf master Coach, Steve Bann.
His full episode is titled Working with the world’s best golfers, turning practice into confidence, and the improvement lifecycle.

I interviewed Steve for this podcast in 2018.
Steve is a partner in BannLynchMcDade, a coaching team that has coached their students to 29 USPGA Tour wins and multiple international amateur and professional titles.
After turning professional in 1979, Steve played on the Australian PGA Tour from 1981 to 1996.
However, since 1996, Steve has travelled the world, coaching at over 40 Majors and five Presidents' Cups. His students have included Stuart Appleby, Robert Allenby, Ian Baker-Finch, Greg Norman, Vijay Singh, and Adam Scott.
Steve has been described by his clients as the most knowledgeable coach in the world. He is also the author of Simply Golf: Back to Basics.
In the full episode we talk about:
✅ Why a lot of coaches focus on fixing technique, which leads to a reactive cycle, and often has the opposite effect
✅ How the improvement life cycle of technical, physical, mental and strategic changes, is a far greater process to undertake
✅ The 6,500 skills the professionals have to learn to master golf and how this translates to the business world, and
✅ The 4-step routine to gaining confidence.
Deal hope,
Greg
