Meet Rick.

A passionate, engaging, and thought-provoking Leadership Coach, and Inspirational Speaker for young men.

Rick knows every male, at some point, faces a moment when they ask themselves 'Do I have what it takes?'
Some are left wanting and searching, then there are the self assured some who can lead, love, protect, provide and be both savage and servant to community and purpose.

Rick is steadfast in his support support of teams and individuals looking for courageous and pioneering pathways to optimise performance, develop self mastery and find a deep sense of authentic self, removing the shackles to purposefully excel and transform male leadership in society.  

Rick is just as comfortable working one to one, as he is a group, he has a proven track record in helping men and boys succeed and win in life.

His passionate, raw, straight-talking style is coupled with warmth, insight and practical strategies to inspire change, challenge conformity and promote extraordinary performance.  

Ways we can work together

  • Inspire the Future

    This innovative and pioneering programme will help 15-18 year old young men have clarity on who they are, what they value, and teach and support them to drive towards who they want to be and where they want to go.

    It will challenge them to step up and take responsibility of their lives, becoming PURPOSEFUL, AUTHENTIC LEADERS.

    My aim is to develop and empower young men to live an authentic life of independence, passion, with a deep sense of self and purpose.

  • Engage Teams

    If you want your team to be inspired, engaged, and performing at their highest level, you have to address the #1 performance, wellbeing and fulfilment blocker: a clear path to SELF MASTERY.

    Fear and disconnection fuels control, conformity, and burnout.

    It stops individuals from taking risks, speaking up, and unlocking their true potential. Left unchecked, it kills culture, stagnates growth, and erodes resilience.

    THE SOLUTION:

    FACE FEAR. STEP COURAGEOSLY INTO AUTHENTICITY. HARNESS IT. TRANSFORM IT INTO POWER.

  • Connective Leadership

    This is a collaboration between Rob Hinton of Hold Fast Challenge and Rick Cooper, of an immersive 4-week Elite Leadership training program.

    Crafted for leaders ready to challenge their limits, embrace transformative growth, and achieve excellence.

    By exploring resilience, emotional intelligence, and authentic leadership, participants will gain the tools to lead with strength, conviction, adaptability, and connection.
