  • Mini Chief: Golf master Coach, Steve Bann, on how to find the actual root cause of a problem [Best of Series]

    "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.

    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:

    βœ… Why a lot of coaches focus on fixing technique, which leads to a reactive cycle, and often has the opposite effect

    βœ… How the improvement life cycle of technical, physical, mental and strategic changes, is a far greater process to undertake

    βœ… The 6,500 skills the professionals have to learn to master golf and how this translates to the business world, and

    After a career in mining at Rio Tinto, Jeremy experienced his first business success through a gelato shop, which sold 16 tonnes in its second year.

    Following an unsavoury experience with a crooked real estate agent, Jeremy made it his life's mission to leverage technology to power a more positive, transparent, and human-centred real estate industry, creating Hutly as the world's only Living Contracts platform and a place where all parties can transact real estate with trust.

    He is also the founder of Bondable, Australia's first subscription-based residential bond service, which launched in 2024.

    Jeremy went to the University of Canberra, where he studied a Bachelor of Business Administration and a Bachelor of Management.
