Sporting Governance & Administration
Myra McGlynn provides expert support for clients at the very top of competitive, thriving industries. This support is based in my twenty years of experience working with C-Suite executives and industry leaders. I have worked with World Rugby, the international governing body of a rapidly growing sport. I am a qualified Executive, Leadership and Life Coach and a member of the European Mentoring & Coaching Council (EMCC). I was recently appointed as an Independent Director on the board of Rugby League Ireland.
I have extensive experience of elite-level sporting governance. I understand the demands and challenges of working at the very top of national and international sporting bodies. In my role with World Rugby, I played a significant role in major processes such as the re-inclusion of rugby in the Olympic programme. I have also worked as an official mentor with Sport Ireland as part of their unique and highly successful M-Power programme, which helps young people develop skills to support their career ambitions.
This experiences has given me a deep understanding of the challenges faced by leaders in sport. I have collaborated with global sporting leaders and have provided mentoring and support to aspiring sporting leaders. I have worked with them to develop effect strategies and practices to overcome challenges. I have helped them to gain new insights and develop effective new approaches.
Competitive Industries
Leaders in sport take on substantial responsibility in competitive, constantly evolving industries. Governance and administration in sports requires comprehensive understanding in many different areas and the ability to work simultaneously with multiple parties. I have helped clients to develop effective organisational systems and to improve their ability to collaborate effectively with different groups.
My clients in sports administration and governance have consistently found that talking through strategies and challenges with my help has been extremely helpful. It allows them to step back and broaden their perspective. I provide practical advice that my clients can implement effectively. I help them deal with specific issues and to build broadly applicable strategies. Rather than supplying standard advice, I help each individual client to utilise their own unique skills and to develop practices that work for them.

Innovation & Creativity
Even for leading executives in thriving industries, it can be easy to become limited by standard practices or specific issues. One of the main aspects of my role is to help my clients remove these limitations by finding new, creative strategies and solutions. In the world of sport, where circumstances and practices are constantly evolving, this ability to innovate and create can really set you apart.
Professional coaching has become a crowded field in recent years. However, truly transformative coaching is still not easy to find. For executives and industry leaders who have already reached the top of their professions, only genuinely elite coaching can help them to reach new heights.
My extensive experience working with c-suite executives and leaders and my committed, comprehensive approach enables me to provide this support. I am also highly qualified to provide coaching, having received my Advanced Diploma from Kingstown College, Dublin in Executive, Leadership and Personal Coaching.
I have helped people at the very top of international sporting governance and administration to develop effective new strategies and creative solutions. I have helped them to see their work, their industries and their professional relationships from new perspectives. My clients learn to take ownership of their work in a new, positive way.
I am passionate about helping people realise their potential. I always aim to help my clients work to their strengths and to those of the people around them. I believe in a collaborative, positive approach to work and to life in general. I work in an environment of trust, transparency and honesty to support positive change.
The way we see ourselves and our place in the world around us can limit us. Opening yourself up to new roles and new ways of thinking can redefine the parameters of what you can achieve. I have helped many clients develop new perspectives and to achieve real clarity around their ambitions and their strategies for achieving them. I have helped them to become more focused, confident and decisive in their work and to collaborate more effectively with their colleagues.
Connection
I have an ability to connect with my clients and to understand their ambitions and the challenges they face. I work hard to establish a genuine connection with my clients. In order to provide expert coaching for sports administration and governance, it’s essential for me to understand my clients ambitions, the challenges they face, and their unique strengths.
Core Principles
I base my coaching around some core principles that I have developed over the course of my career. Focusing on these principles has allowed me to provide effective, transformative support for a diverse range of clients. While I tailor my work to the needs of each individual client, I have found these principles to be universally effective. They are as follows:
- Supporting change and action
- Focusing on the client’s journey
- Helping the client to establish a plan and providing unconditional positive regard
- Working with clients to enable them to get the very best from themselves
- Partnering with clients for every step of their journey to unlock their full potential
As you can see, a crucial part of my role is to help clients to identify and follow their own paths. I do not provide “one size fits all” coaching. I collaborate closely with my clients to help them develop a clearer concept of their ambitions and how to achieve them. It’s extremely important for me to work closely with a client on a clear plan and to follow it together. We will also adapt strategies as we progress where necessary. I have found throughout my career that this is the most effective way to achieve true, sustainable success.
My focus on positive regard means that I will always try to help my clients to develop their own ideas and strategies. I don’t provide standard concepts for everyone that I work with, but help my clients to use their own unique strengths. I also help my clients to relate to and collaborate with others in positive, effective ways.
