Each episode features candid conversations with the world’s top international rugby coaches, who share the personal stories and intangible insights behind their winning cultures, and their biggest failures and what they learnt from them. This is where X’s and O’s meet heart and soul.

If you believe that the real gold in rugby lies beyond the scoreboard, Coaching Culture is the podcast for you.

Hi everyone, I'm Ben Herring and I want to welcome you to Coaching Culture with myself. Ben Herring, if you're looking to sharpen your coaching craft by exploring more than just the drills and tactics, you've come to the right place. As coaches, we're often consumed by the X's and O's the skills and drills how to structure plays, perfect the perfect set piece or execute the ideal training session. Through my time in professional rugby, I've learned that success hinges on something deeper the cultures we create. It's about open communication, authentic leadership and forging bonds that hold teams together when the pressure comes on. Every week, we'll sit down with some of the most respected international coaches in the game Legends like Eddie Jones, steve Hansen and many more who'll share their stories, insights and even the stumbles that shape them. Their experiences are a goldmine of lessons on how to connect with players, build trust and cultivate environments where people thrive, both on and off the field.
