About Jonny Wilkinson
Jonny Wilkinson is widely regarded as one of the most iconic figures in international rugby, most famously remembered for the drop goal that secured England's World Cup victory in 2003. His remarkable career spans twelve years with the Newcastle Falcons and a highly successful period at RC Toulon, where he earned multiple Premiership, Powergen Cup, and Six Nations titles. Recognised as the IRB International Player of the Year and BBC Sports Personality of the Year, he retired as the highest international points scorer of all time, having redefined excellence on the world stage.
Beyond his sporting achievements, Jonny has dedicated himself to exploring the psychological dimensions of peak performance. Through his experience as a columnist for The Times and the author of five books, he has delved into the mental toll of elite competition and the importance of maintaining clarity and balance under pressure. His transition from the pitch to coaching and entrepreneurship with his brand, Fineside, reflects his commitment to purposeful living and a deep understanding of human potential.
As a speaker, Jonny provides a sophisticated analysis of how individuals and teams can achieve their goals while prioritising mental health. He draws on his unique journey to help audiences navigate stress, foster collaboration, and find meaning in their professional pursuits. His presentations are highly valued for their honesty and his ability to relate the lessons of world-class sport to the challenges of modern business environments.
