The Purple Leader model filters established theory on modern-day leadership through a lens of real-life experience to help you lead when it really counts. This is ‘experiential learning’ from real-life experiences that have played out on-and off field in front of millions of people around the world to inspire individuals, corporates and start-ups. 

 Purple Leader is a 10-part online experiential leadership educational series that you can choose to experience in course format or simply enjoy as edu-tainment.

One of the few elite sports coaches to have also achieved success in the business arena, Michael Cheika has been able to observe first-hand how the principles of elite performance in sport are transferrable to the business world. In this 10-part online series Cheika codifies his personal leadership model using his understanding of performance psychology harnessed from over 20 years of experience in pro sports and business. 

 Cheika charts the Purple Leader model in action drawn from real life experience at key points in his career including: his arrival and departure from the Wallabies; World Cup victories and losses; searching for Super Rugby’s holy grail; the Leinster turnaround to European glory; the Folau crisis; crisis management, whether it’s at half time or in the boardroom.
