Accelerating your learning and achievements.
The Inner Game is about Performance, Learning and Enjoyment. The most common barriers to reaching optimal potential are the ways we all interfere with ourselves; self-doubt, fear of failure, judgmental thinking, and confusion of goals. We tend to be our own worst enemies. Fearless focus is the key to an outstanding success.

The Inner Game History
In the mid-1970s, Tim Gallwey gained valuable insights into experiential learning during one of his tennis classes in California. He realized that individuals could enhance their learning experience through a more hands-off approach. In his 1974 book, The Inner Game of Tennis, he initially introduced this concept.The concepts of the Inner Game quickly made their way into the corporate world. What we know today as modern coaching has emerged. Global companies like Apple, AT&T, Coca-Cola, IBM, Rolls-Royce, and many others have embraced this method as a valuable tool in their decision-making processes and leadership development.
- Watch the evolution of The Inner Game unfold
The Inner Game: The New Era
It has been half a century since it all began.
The past was filled with remarkable achievements and captivating narratives; the present continues to be a source of inspiration; and our unwavering focus is on shaping a future of success.
The New Era embodies a spirit of fearlessness.
It involves challenging ideas and connecting with individuals and communities who can gain value from these principles that endure over time. As we nurture this evolution, we enter The New Era of The Inner Game.
“Winning is overcoming obstacles to reach a goal, but the value in winning is only as great as the value of the goal reached.”
~ Timothy Gallwey
The Inner Game
is a Game for Everyone
Regardless of your role or position, the principles of the Inner Game can be applied and prove to be highly beneficial. Whether you are an employee, a business owner, a team leader, an educator, a mentor, or someone who nurtures and guides others, these principles are universally applicable.
These are important areas that should be taken into account: basic education, well-being and health, the environment care, needy communities, sustainable entrepreneurship, inclusion, and diversity.
This ambitious vision inspires us to forge strong partnerships and pioneer groundbreaking solutions that drive the widespread adoption of The Inner Game’s transformative concepts.
Inner Game Programs
The Inner Game Methodology
This program is designed to expose participants to the essential core of The Inner Game Method. The Inner Game’s first major learning step is that within every human being, there are two selves. Self 1 is the conscious ego mind that we as humans have invented on top of the real self that we were born with. Self 2 is the human being itself.
The most common barriers to reaching optimal potential are the ways we all interfere with ourselves: self-doubt, fear of failure, judgmental thinking, and confusion of goals. We tend to be our own worst enemies.
Each attendee of this workshop will have the great opportunity to understand how to play and win your own inner game. This program is delivered live and online, in different languages. Check our calendar for upcoming programs.
The Inner Game of Performance
How can we rewire ourselves and the organizations we work for, hardwired for stability, control, and predictability, into cultures that value not only performance but also authentic human growth, learning, and evolution?
This workshop demonstrates an approach that boosts learning and achievement. It encourages you to reconsider your motivations and principles of success. It helps to define the landscape of what we call a highly performing, integrated organization.
The Inner Game of Performance is a program for professionals and individuals that are challenged to grow themselves and be aware of their possibilities. Leaders, young talents, entrepreneurs, sportspeople, and executives can take advantage of Inner Game tools to help them deal with day-to-day issues.
The Inner Game of Selling
A salesperson’s goal is to convince customers to buy. Inner Game prepares salespeople to achieve sales success at the source of this process. That source corresponds to the “inner” thought process of a customer’s ears. The Inner Game training provides sellers with the ability to influence this “inner” dialog that determines success for all sales. Agility is essential for sales. Customers are always introducing the unexpected. The program encourages salespeople learn to “think on their feet” to handle unexpected customer answers successfully.
We need to ensure that salesmen practice and apply “buying without trying.” We develop salespeople how to use consumer decision-performance as leverage. Selling becomes effortless, and even enjoyable.
Buying is the desired outcome of selling, consequently the goal of selling is to buy. Traditional sales training is “off-purpose.” It focuses on enhancing a salesperson’s selling performance. The Inner Game Seeling program runs “on purpose.” We focus on helping salespeople improve their customers’ purchasing performance

Testimonials
"Since his first book, The Inner Game of Tennis, I have been fascinated and personally benefited by the incredible empowerment of Tim Gallwey’s insights into his analysis of Self 1 and Self 2. This work-related study is a liberating analogy and inspires us to relax and trust our true Self."
Carroll says he might drop “Inner Game” in a player’s locker. Other times he passes along a chapter or a passage. He long ago stopped using the actual language of the book in practice. “I don’t talk about it with the team,” Carroll says. “We don’t tell them about it, we just do it. We incorporate it into everything we do.”
“I understood that the Inner Game was not just a concept applicable to sport players, but a powerful tool for natural learning.”
"In this days, when many people talks of accelerating learning in organizations but few have actually done it, the words of a master like Tim Gallwey are timely indeed."
