David Webb
David Webb helps organisations turn potential into performance, drawing on more than 20 years identifying and developing talent in elite football. A performance coach with a Sports Psychology MSc, David played a key role in Georgia's historic EURO 2024 campaign.
David Webb is an international football performance coach with more than 20 years' experience identifying, developing, and leading talent at elite club and international level.
His career spans Crystal Palace, Tottenham Hotspur, Southampton, Bournemouth, Huddersfield Town and Bayer Leverkusen, working across the Premier League, Bundesliga, and international football. David played a key role in helping Georgia qualify for UEFA EURO 2024, the country's first major tournament, before reaching the Round of 16.
Along the way, David has worked with and helped develop players including Harry Kane, Son Heung-min, Wilfried Zaha and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, recruiting and developing talent that has gone on to generate more than £200 million in transfer value. Combined with a Master's degree in Sports Psychology, that experience gives David a rare, evidence-based view of what it takes to turn potential into performance, drawing on what he calls a hunter's mindset: creating belief, focus, and determination under pressure.
Audiences leave David's keynotes able to spot the right talent for their environment, understand what makes individuals different, and build the conditions and mindset that help people identify their strengths and perform consistently, even when the pressure is highest. His style is authentic and conversational, shaped by years spent working directly with elite players and teams.
Book David Webb to help your audience turn potential into performance, backed by two decades of proof at the highest level of the game.
Topics, sessions and talks
David Webb developed the hunter's mindset with Georgia's national team ahead of their UEFA EURO 2024 clash with Portugal, the tournament's lowest-ranked side facing one of its strongest. Drawing on the idea of the wolf pack, David shows how high-performing teams build fearless belief, stay united and perform together against the odds. The session is particularly relevant for teams facing ambitious targets or unfamiliar territory, leaving audiences able to build collective belief, become more decisive under pressure and turn adversity into fuel rather than limitation.
Talent gets attention, but it doesn't guarantee performance. Across more than 20 years in elite football, David Webb has worked the entire talent journey: identifying potential, recruiting it, developing it and creating environments where talented individuals can thrive. Having worked with players including Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, David challenges leaders to look beyond ability, asking what makes an individual different and whether the right conditions exist for them to succeed, so organisations can turn potential into sustainable performance.
One exceptional performance is never enough. Drawing on more than 20 years in elite football and his Master's in Sports Psychology, David Webb explores what consistency actually looks like inside high-performance environments, and why it's often misunderstood. He shows how individuals and teams turn high standards into repeatable behaviours, maintain focus when circumstances become difficult and respond to setbacks without letting standards slip, building the consistency that sustainable performance depends on.
David Webb brings more than 20 years identifying, developing, and leading talent at clubs including Tottenham Hotspur, Southampton, and Bayer Leverkusen, and playing a key role in Georgia's UEFA EURO 2024 campaign. His Master's degree in Sports Psychology adds evidence-based thinking to turning potential into performance.

To book David Webb, email david.webb@getapeptalk.com or call PepTalk on +44 20 3835 2929 (UK) or +1 737 888 5112 (US), and one of our speaker agents will contact you within hours to confirm David's availability and speaking fee. If you can, please include your budget upfront – it helps us fast-track your request. It’s also helpful to know the date, format (virtual or in-person), location, and about your audience.
No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
