WeAreTheCity are proud to introduce “Behind the Cover”, our new series of interviews with incredible authors.

In the fifth in the series, our founder, Vanessa Vallely OBE, interviewed award-winning Leadership Coach, Author, Speaker & Educator, Michelle Moore, about her upcoming book, Real Wins.

Join Vanessa and Michelle as they discuss Michelle’s new book, asking uncomfortable questions, encouraging women to speak up, and transitioning into coaching.

Real Wins is an urgent call to action from one of the most influential women in sport.

In her unflinching style, Michelle Moore seeks to redress inequality at all levels and shows us how to challenge stereotypes and tired assumptions to transform our experiences and environments.

Through this timely, eye-opening insight into her experiences both on the track and in the boardroom, Michelle shows us how to face our fears, build resilience and find our own unique leadership style. She shares stories from athletes, leaders and many other inspiring people, as she redefines the relationship between identity and success for both individuals and organisations.

Giving you the practical strategies of self-awareness and resilience to run your own race, Real Wins will empower you to take responsibility for your own prejudices, actions and ultimate success. Michelle Moore tirelessly champions a brand of conscious leadership for a new age of sport and business. She is sought out by corporations, government bodies and international sports federations to help drive change and bring about personal and collective transformation.
