Build mental toughness and resilience with Luke Tyburski, high-performance leadership coach. Luke equips teams with science-backed frameworks to navigate change and perform under pressure.

Luke Tyburski is a high-performance leadership coach who helps individuals and teams build mental toughness and resilience through science-backed frameworks.
Luke has delivered keynote talks in 16 countries across five continents, including a TEDx. He has worked with national sporting teams, embassies, and global companies, and has been featured in The Guardian, The Huffington Post, and on The Rich Roll Podcast. His documentaries and published books chronicle extreme endurance challenges, including a world-first 2,000-kilometre triathlon from Morocco to Monaco, and he has been listed among the 50 fittest athletes in the world by Forever Sports Magazine.
After multiple surgeries forced him to retire from elite sport, Luke rebuilt his career whilst navigating depression and burnout. He now translates this experience into practical tools grounded in neuroscience and psychology. His approach focuses on three core principles: how people view situations, think about scenarios, and act in response to pressure or change.
Audiences learn to reframe disruption as opportunity, build high-performance cultures that balance trust with accountability, and develop genuine mental toughness beyond positive thinking. Luke's presentations deliver actionable methods for thriving through uncertainty and turning setbacks into competitive advantages.
Book Luke to equip your team with practical strategies for navigating change and performing under pressure.
Topics, sessions and talks
Pressure exposes the gap between intention and execution, particularly when mindset is misunderstood as motivation alone. Luke Tyburski strips away clichés, focusing on the neuroscience behind how people think, feel, and respond under stress. Luke translates complex ideas into practical strategies that improve focus, emotional control, and decision-making. Drawing on personal adversity and high-stakes experience, he demonstrates how to strengthen cognitive capacity, enabling individuals and teams to perform consistently when it matters most.
Change often triggers uncertainty, hesitation, and stalled progress within teams. Luke Tyburski reframes disruption as a powerful catalyst, drawing on extreme endurance challenges and leadership experience to show how pressure can ignite growth. Luke combines science-backed thinking with lived experience to help organisations shift perspective, respond decisively, and act with intent. His approach cuts through theory, offering practical ways to turn instability into momentum and unlock new levels of performance and innovation.
Adversity often triggers fear, narrowing thinking and limiting potential at the very moment adaptability is needed most. Luke Tyburski introduces curiosity as a powerful alternative, using it to reframe challenges and unlock new possibilities. Luke draws on extreme experiences and personal setbacks to show how shifting perspective can transform crisis into opportunity. With an engaging and candid style, he equips audiences to approach uncertainty with openness, improving innovation, problem-solving, and resilience under sustained pressure.
Organisations frequently mistake comfort for safety, resulting in cultures that avoid tension but limit performance. Luke Tyburski challenges this by exploring how true psychological safety works alongside accountability to drive results. Luke shares grounded frameworks shaped by elite sport and business, showing how trust, clarity, and standards can coexist. With direct, no-nonsense delivery, he reveals how to build environments where individuals feel supported yet pushed, strengthening both collective performance and long-term resilience.
Luke brings a rare mix of extreme endurance experience and practical performance coaching, grounded in how people think and act under pressure. He is particularly effective with teams facing sustained change, where clear thinking and consistent execution are needed. His international experience and direct storytelling style translate well across sectors facing disruption and transformation.

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.
