Skinstad brings e-learning to business coaching

Rugby icon Bob Skinstad and Richard Koch, bestselling author of the 80/20 Principle, have teamed up to create the first official e-course on 80/20 practice.

The launch happens on the back of The 80/20 Principles 20th anniversary year, a milestone for advocates of the mindset.

“The 80/20 Principle played a critical role in my own personal development,” says Skinstad on his motivations for working on the e-course. “Hearing how young professionals were struggling with things like decision-making, communication and work-life balance during my corporate talks, I was inspired to approach Richard last year. I knew that, if we could combine storytelling with modern media and e-learning, 80/20 practice could reshape lives and even entire businesses.”

Skinstad is a fierce practitioner of The 80/20 Mindset, and has used it to succeed in sport and business – transitioning from being an ex-Springbok rugby captain to being a highly successful entrepreneur, business personality and international speaker.

Skinstad’s aim is to help career-stalled young professionals navigate the unstable and ever-changing modern workplace, using the 80/20 rule in day-to-day business. As a speaker, his vision is to bring the 80/20 Mindset to brands in search of engaging corporate e-learning experiences that will inspire and energise their employees – first with a dynamic presentation, then with the online e-course.

With contributions from legendary sporting personalities, he presents the 5-module video e-course using personal stories and anecdotes from his own life, with animations to illustrate the lessons he teaches. After the e-course, students will enjoy being part of the 80/20 Mindset community, a hub for leaders and advocates of 80/20 practice.

Based in the UK, Skinstad travels extensively and is highly sought out on the global stage as speaker, commentator and business presenter. He has made it a personal mission to teach a new generation how to succeed using 80/20 lessons in the digital age.

The e-course is available online. Companies of all sizes can sign up for the 80/20 Mindset Experience, or individuals can sign up to do the e-course directly on the site.
