He served as an officer in the US Navy and was one of the founders of a liberal arts college in the Midwest. Starting in the mid 1970’s Tim Gallwey produced a series of best selling books (e.g. The Inner Game of Tennis and The Inner Game of Work), which set forth a new methodology for the development of personal and professional excellence in a variety of fields. For the last forty years Gallwey has been introducing The Inner Game (R) approach to corporations looking for better ways to manage change.

Through lectures, consulting, and seminars, his focus has been directed at three targets, 1) helping all individuals in a company learn how to learn, and think for themselves, 2) helping managers learn how to coach, 3) helping leaders learn to create “learning organizations.” His latest book is The Inner Game of Stress.
