Steve Mellor Biography

Coach Steve Mellor is a natural-born competitor who embodies the philosophy that growth and optimal performance can be achieved in all areas of life. His dedication to realizing the potential in himself and others has earned him a reputation as a highly effective coach.

Originally from England, Mellor has spent much of the past two decades in the United States as both a collegiate swimmer and swim coach. He competed for four years at North Carolina State before devoting the following ten years to becoming Associate Head Coach at Louisiana State University (LSU). During his tenure at LSU, Mellor's guidance helped athletes reach new heights in NCAA and SEC Swimming, and he was instrumental in propelling Brooks Curry to become the university's first-ever American Olympic swimmer and win an Olympic Gold Medal with Team USA.

In October 2021, Mellor channeled his passion for optimizing individual performance into founding Career Competitor LLC. As an Executive Coach, Culture Consultant, and Keynote Speaker, Mellor leverages his background and years of elite coaching to help others reach their full potential. His company grew from the Career Competitor podcast, which launched in June of 2018 and features former athletes and established competitors discussing how they optimize their competitive and athlete-minded characteristics to achieve great heights in their careers.

In 2022, Mellor became an author with the release of his debut book, "SHOCK THE WORLD! A Competitor’s Guide to Realizing Your Potential," in which he takes readers through a series of “shocks” to prompt the pursuit of realizing one’s potential. The book presents three key areas of development Mellor believes we should target in pursuit of our potential: inward steps, process steps, and action steps. These three phases of personal development not only offer readers the direction they need to pursue their dreams, but it sheds light on what has been at the heart of Mellor’s coaching approach for years.

Whether it be his book, his current coaching work, the decades of involvement in elite sport, or just his DNA, Mellor oozes a passion for the pursuit of human potential. As a speaker, Mellor brings his enthusiasm and commitment towards maximizing potential through the form of intentional and inspiring content. A storyteller by nature, Mellor takes pride in connecting the experiences of himself and others with impactful lessons for audiences to latch onto and see themselves in as well. Mellor’s goal as a speaker is to implement positivity, banish doubt, establish accountability, and prompt change in the lives of those in attendance.

Mellor believes we all have an optimal self that is worth pursuing, it just requires knowing what it takes to move towards it.

Steve Mellor Speaking Topics

  • BECOMING GROWTH READY: The 3C’s of Growth Mindset

    As a leader, you’re responsible for driving growth. But have you considered if your mindset is truly supporting growth? Could your current outlook be holding you and your team back from pursuing optimal growth?

    When you focus on developing your mindset as a leader, you lay the foundation for growth within yourself. This powerful shift not only enhances your own progress but also equips you to lead others with intention, transparency, and accountability.

    We will use our time together to:

    • Implement the 3C’s of growth mindset into our daily practices
    • Create shared spaces to develop the mindsets of others.
    • Motivate ourselves by the opportunity to truly impact growth
    • Align ourselves with fellow leaders to form a growth culture

  • COMPETITIVE COLLABORATION

    The ever-present war on talent leaves leaders desperate to find solutions for disengaged employees and turnover. What if the key to employee engagement lay at the intersection of where a competitive mindset and collaborative approach meet?

    Learn how "Competitive Collaboration" creates curiosity, growth, and accountability across your organization to deliver long-term solutions for engagement and retention.

    You will learn how to: - Implement the 3-part process required to optimize employee engagement. - Create an environment for talent to not only grow, but have optimal impact on others. - Boost retention through an authentic and inclusive workplace that is fueling purpose. - Motivate your high-potential employees to aspire towards leaderships roles. - Implement self-sustaining accountability structure that builds pride & honors buy in.

  • READY WHEN YOU ARE

    Growth waits for no one. The moment we assume optimal performance comes by sticking to “what we’ve always done” is the moment we stop growing.

    It is vital we not only consider what is possible within teams and organizations but also having our people READY to aspire towards what is possible.

    By embracing a growth mindset, enhancing communication, and optimizing collaboration we can form teams who are ready to innovate, come together, and contribute to excellence unlike ever before.

    Attendees will learn how to:

    • Implement the 3 C’s of Growth Mindset as individuals and as a culture.
