BOOM Performance
Co-Pilot with Gary Dawes
For founders seeking clarity, confidence and emotional resilience to lead decisively into 2026.
Every business challenge has two battlegrounds:
the external strategy… and the internal psychology.
Most founders and business leaders invest heavily in the first.
Very few receive meaningful support on the second.
This is where Gary steps in – your Performance Co-Pilot, helping you stabilise your mindset, strengthen your leadership, and rebuild the internal capacity required for sustainable growth.
Meet Gary Dawes
Your BOOM Performance Co-Pilot
For over 40 years, I’ve worked with people, leaders, teams, athletes and business owners, helping them manage pressure, break unhelpful patterns and perform at their highest level.
Across industries including sport, ophthalmics, automotive and finance, one truth has remained constant:
Businesses don’t usually fail because of strategy. They struggle because of people.
- Confidence wavers.
- Emotions get heavy.
- Patterns repeat.
- Teams miscommunicate.
- Leaders lose clarity, conviction and momentum.
I’m a Master Practitioner in NLP, Time Line Therapy™ and Hypnotherapy – but what I deliver is not therapy, and it’s not traditional life coaching.
It’s practical, applied human performance.
I help founders and leaders build clarity, emotional steadiness and the mental resiliance to lead with calm confidence.
In a grounded, empathetic, commercially aware manner with no judgement, no noise.
Just clarity, control and forward movement.
A Clear Map to Your Destination
My approach isn’t abstract, it’s structured and actionable.
Together, we develop a personalised Performance Navigation Map:
a clear, step-by-step route with defined goals, milestones and behavioral markers that make progress visible and achievable.
This map helps you:
- Understand where you are, with precision
- Identify the patterns holding you back
- Define where you want to go professionally and personally
- Follow a realistic, repeatable path to get there
- Measure your momentum and stay on course
It’s a practical guide you can follow with confidence, a roadmap that keeps you aligned, focused and moving toward your end destination.
Who I Work Best With
Founders carrying too much
Pressure, weight of responsibility, decision fatigue, emotional overload.
Leaders who’ve lost confidence
Struggling to find clarity, stability, or direction under pressure.
High-performers who want to stay sharp
Ambitious individuals committed to sustainable excellence without burning out.
Business owners stuck in repeating patterns
Ready to break cycles, shift behaviours and create meaningful change.
Teams struggling with communication
Where friction, misalignment or unresolved tension is slowing growth.
If you need space, grounding, clarity and confidence… you’re in the right place.
How BOOM Performance Co-Pilot supports the BOOM Growth Method™
1. BOOM Blueprint™ – Strategy & Direction
Every 90 days you create a focused operating plan.
My role: Helping you approach Blueprint with clarity, not noise.
Emotionally grounded and mentally ready to lead.
2. BOOM Pulse™ – Execution & Accountability
A weekly rhythm that builds consistency without overwhelm.
My role: Spotting and shifting the behavioural patterns behind execution –
hesitation, avoidance, overwhelm, confidence dips.
3. BOOM Performance™ – Commercial & Human Optimisation
Business performance improves the company.
Human performance improves the leader.
My work focuses on:
- Confidence
- Emotional resilience
- Behaviour patterns
- Communication
- Leadership psychology
- Decision calmness
- Stress reduction
- Clarity & focus
Together, the three pillars create a complete founder operating system – combining strategy, execution and human clarity.
How This Supports BOOM Mastermind (Optional)
Many of the leaders I work with are also part of BOOM Mastermind, and when the two run together, results accelerate dramatically.
Mastermind gives you: clarity, structure, accountability and powerful peer support.
My 1:1 work gives you: personal clarity, emotional steadiness and behavioural alignment.
Together:
- Pulse becomes sharper
- Blueprint becomes easier to implement
- Performance becomes deeper
- Stress and noise reduce
- Leadership becomes calmer and clearer
- Momentum increases
Leaders in an active Performance Co-Pilot programme also receive a £100/month reduction on their BOOM Mastermind membership for as long as both run together.
There’s no requirement to be in Mastermind to work with me –
but leaders who combine both tend to grow faster and more sustainably.
The Two-Pilot Advantage
While you don’t need both Co-Pilots, the BOOM ecosystem is designed so leaders can benefit from two complementary strengths:
- Human performance (Performance Co-Pilot)
- Commercial performance (Strategic Co-Pilot)
Together, this creates full-spectrum founder support:
- Strategy
- Execution
- Commercial optimisation
- Personal clarity
- Behavioural stability
- Emotional capacity
This is what makes BOOM different.
And why this work transforms leaders.
Why 2026 Matters
Demand for Co-Pilot support is rising quickly, and because of my commitments inside BOOM Mastermind and monthly events, I will only be taking on a small number of 1:1 Performance Co-Pilot clients in 2026.
If you want next year to be the year you lead with more clarity, confidence and emotional strength – the window is now.
Not later.
Not “when things calm down.”
Now.
Because the founders who transform their business in 2026 will be the ones who first transform themselves.
