Dr Taylor’s fascination with leadership in diverse cultural contexts and the barriers women face in high-performance coaching inspired his PhD research.
Driven by a passion for inclusivity, Dr. Taylor focuses on effective communication, rapport building, and mentoring aspiring leaders—especially women—within traditionally male-dominated fields.
Also a celebrated athlete, Dr. Taylor’s achievements in bodybuilding include winning a world championship title, representing Australia on the international stage, and demonstrating the discipline, resilience, and focus required to compete at the highest level. His experience as a world-class athlete provided him with unique insights into high-performance environments, which continue to shape his approach to leadership and coaching.
Our conversation included personal reflections from my experiences in the New Zealand SAS, highlighting the barriers women face in breaking into male-dominated environments. Additionally, we drew lessons from the fire brigade, where 1 single standard for fitness and aptitude is maintained for all candidates, underscoring the importance of fairness and merit in leadership.
Dr. Taylor’s work champions a shift in leadership culture, advocating for inclusivity, accountability, and continuous learning. His contributions inspire a new approach to high-performance coaching and organisational leadership—one grounded in equity, excellence, and personal growth.
