Michael Whatman
Leadership and Performance Coach
25 years combined experience working in the recruitment market and coaching within the world of elite sport. Started as a trainee graduate in a niche market and had a number of years as a top biller before moving across to team leadership where my role was to grow and develop teams in to new niche markets.
Before moving across into a more training focused role to augment the growth process internationally for the business. Designed and facilitated international training programmes before setting up my own coaching business a few years later.
Since then I have worked with multi national recruitment organisations upwards of 2000 employees all the way down to small boutique agencies of 5 heads.
My experience working with elite rugby, football and rowing teams enables me to provide a hybrid approach to leadership and people development. Becoming the youngest director of rugby within the national rugby set up.
I work with businesses who are looking to create high performing teams and develop mindsets that are targeting sustained growth and success. The bottleneck of any business is the leadership group, as a business can have all the vision and purpose that it needs however if the consistency in high performance leadership is not there, the mission will fail.
I offer programmes to create world class leaders that provide them with a practical coaching system that has been proven to deliver genuine performance improvement and create long term success. I share tried and tested people development strategies and coaching methods that are currently being used by some of the most elite coaches in the world to help your leaders develop the confidence and skills and most importantly consistency, to over achieve their targets and maximise the potential of their human capital.
My mantra is “doing is learning”, the programmes are activity based, challenge lead and conversational rather than old fashioned “chalk and talk” sessions. The programme is also fully remote which means that it can be delivered to multiple offices at the same time to support any new remote working arrangements.

Talent + Guidance + Hard Work = Results.
I have been very privileged to work with and be coached by some of the most influential coaches in the world of athletics as well as train alongside and learn from some of the greatest athletes.
In addition to this, I am a global Keynote speaker, with over 20yrs experience delivering presentations around the world and was voted as one of the top 5 motivational speakers in the world. This combined with my career as an event and TV presenter I have developed the confidence and skills to deliver content to a vast range of audiences.
Creating 1404 Performance alongside my business partner Andrew Cohen-Wray has enabled me to work with businesses and the individuals and teams within them to help them understand, implement and most importantly sustain the building blocks needed to create high-performance teams, culture and mindset.

From this point of clarity, we will plan the journey and your steps to success, checking in continuously and navigating any hurdles or barriers that could get in the way.
Andrew Cohen-Wray
Director & Mental Performance Scientist
At 1404 Performance we specialise in human performance.
The 1404 programme was created by Danny Crates, Paralympic Gold medalist and renowned business speaker and Andrew Cohen-Wray a highly successful Mental Performance Coach. We offer a range of programmes designed to help businesses and the personnel within them create and maintain a high-performance culture.
Our mission is what drives us to do everything possible to expand human potential. We specialise in creating high performing individuals and teams through our range of bespoke programmes, leaving them empowered to move towards your businesses, vision and goals.
Our products include High-Performance Programmes, Performance and Executive Coaching, Motivational Workshops and Inspirational Keynote Conference Speeches, as well as Health and Wellbeing Seminars.
The journey to high-performance.
We start by looking at the vision and goals of the business, this is where we gain a real understanding of the roles the teams and individuals within them play in delivering the vision. It is of no value setting ambitious goals in business if your team do not buy in and understand the purpose, without this clarity the goals and vision are merely words without meaning. 1404 performance will help bring it to life and give it value.
Understanding.
Here we get into the heart of our high-performance model. We equip both the team and the individuals to deliver and lead by giving them the tools and understanding needed to perform.
This is where, as a business you invest in the personal development of your team. If you want to move a business forward, you also need to move the team forward, if you don’t it can result in failure or burnout.
Mental health is at the heart of everything we deliver at 1404 Performance. Healthy team = A High-Performance Team.
PERFORMANCE
What is high-performance, how do we create a high-performance culture and mindset and most importantly how do we sustain it. This is not about simply working harder; it’s about working smarter and more efficiently as a team. 1404 will work with your business to create high-performance teams and leadership that delivers exceptional results.
