Lewis Moody is a former England rugby captain and World Cup winner, celebrated for his fearless style of play and enduring resilience. Known as ‘Mad Dog’ for his commitment on the field, Lewis has become one of the most admired figures in English rugby. His leadership style is open and authentic, and he shares both his achievements and challenges, which helps him connect meaningfully with audiences.
Lewis is a strong advocate for the belief that anyone can achieve high performance with the right environment and support. His career reflects a resilient growth mindset, having faced numerous challenges over his 16 years in professional rugby. These included 14 surgeries, a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis, a cancer scare, and a series of injuries that might have ended his career. Yet, despite these setbacks, he earned 71 caps for England, captained his country 12 times, and was part of three British and Irish Lions tours. His career highlights include winning the 2003 Rugby World Cup, a Grand Slam, two Six Nations titles, and seven Premiership titles. Lewis was also inducted into the Premiership Rugby Hall of Fame and received an MBE for his services to the sport.
After retiring, Lewis founded the Lewis Moody Foundation in 2014, a charity dedicated to raising awareness and funds for brain tumour research. Through the foundation, he has taken part in various endurance challenges, from cycling across Vietnam and Cambodia to trekking to the North and South Poles, raising over £2 million for families affected by brain tumours.
Lewis now works as a keynote motivational speaker and performance coach, collaborating with clients in business and sports.
