Welsh international rugby player Dan Biggar is to work with the independent Circle Reading Hospital to support leadership and coaching for its staff based in Reading, it has been announced.

He will be using resilience-building and success-driving techniques used by international athletes as he joins the hospital’s owners, Circle Health Group, as its first Executive Coach and Leadership Ambassador.

The 34 year old fly-half who currently plays for French Top 14 side Toulon, will continue playing while also working with senior management at Circle Reading Hospital to identify and develop talent amongst the hospital’s clinical and administrative workforce.

Commenting on his appointment, Dan Biggar, said: “It’s an honour to be working so closely with the team at Circle Reading Hospital, to support them in the incredible work they do treating and caring for patients across the community. Like me, Circle Reading Hospital is committed to achieving excellence in its field and I see the potential this role has to offer. I’ve led at the highest levels and representing my country in the game I love was one of the proudest moments of my life. I see the passion this hospital has for its people and patients. I cannot wait to share what I’ve learnt with staff and drive excellence in every aspect of our game.”

Dan made his debut for Circle in London in July and spoke about how passionate he is to share what he’s learnt leading teams in domestic and international rugby Union.

In the coming months Dan will be getting to know Circle Reading Hospital as part of his tour of Circle’s 52 hospitals across the UK, to launch his ‘Excellence in Your Team’ programme for staff at every level from wards to management.

The programme is a commitment by Circle Reading Hospital to support its people with unique opportunities to grow their own management and leadership skills.

Commenting on the appointment, David Cooper, Chief People Officer at Circle Health Group, said: “I am delighted that Dan decided to sign with us in this unique role at Circle. He has an international reputation for excellence on the field and knows what it takes to motivate, inspire and lead high-performing teams at the top-level in his sport. His role represents a renewed commitment to our people and their development with us. His appointment is an exciting new chapter in Circle’s story.”
