About Roberto
From non-league dugout to Grand Slam glory.
Roberto Forzoni is a performance psychologist, international keynote speaker, BBC consultant, and Gold Star Member of The Inner Magic Circle. For over thirty years he has helped elite athletes, Olympic champions, Premier League football clubs, and global business leaders perform at their best — and feel better doing it.
His career began on the touchline as a non-league football coach, progressed to first-team coaching roles at Brentford, Brighton, and Crystal Palace, and evolved into one of the most varied and distinguished careers in applied performance psychology in the UK.
The Career
Three decades across elite sport, media, and business.
A career that reads like a who's who of British sporting history — and increasingly, global corporate leadership.
Premier League Football
First-team coach at Crystal Palace, Brentford, and Brighton. Performance psychologist at West Ham United, Southampton, Charlton, and Norwich City. Transformed West Ham's season from a 23% win rate to 78%, reaching the FA Cup Final and securing a UEFA Cup place. Author of The FA Guide to Psychology on Football.
Tennis & Team Murray
Created Team Murray — the support system behind Andy Murray's three Grand Slam titles, Olympic Gold, and world number one ranking. Mentored Laura Robson to win Junior Wimbledon. Shaped the psychological framework for British tennis development at the highest level.
Boxing & Olympic Sport
Prepared Derek Chisora for the World Heavyweight Championship fight against Tyson Fury. Worked with the GB Commonwealth boxing squad and Olympic athletes across judo, athletics, shooting, and wheelchair rugby.
BBC & Media
Psychology consultant for BBC TV and radio for over a quarter of a century. Regular contributor to Sky Sports, Sky News, Al Jazeera, and BBC Radio networks. A recognised voice on performance, pressure, and the psychology behind major sporting events.
Corporate & Global Speaking
Delivers high-impact keynotes and workshops for global organisations including NTT, Laing O'Rourke, TT Investment House, Adobe, and Coutts. Translates elite sport psychology into practical frameworks for leadership teams, conferences, and away days worldwide.
Academic & Publications
MSc in Sport Sciences with Distinction. BASES-accredited psychologist trained in CBT, NLP, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing. Guest lecturer at Brunel, UCL, Loughborough, and Greenwich universities. Regular contributor to the LMA Manager Magazine and the BPS Psychologist journal.
Beyond the Keynote
Not your typical performance psychologist.
Roberto is a Gold Star Member of The Inner Magic Circle — one of the highest honours in professional magic. He's performed for royalty, celebrities, and CEOs, and he weaves the psychology of perception, attention, and influence into his work in ways that no other speaker can.
He also hosts Juice, a weekly soul music show on Solar Radio — because connection, rhythm, and energy are at the heart of everything he does, on stage and off.
Professional Magician
Gold Star Member of The Inner Magic Circle. The intersection of magic and psychology is where Roberto's most surprising insights live — attention, influence, and the gap between what we see and what's actually there.
Juice — Solar Radio
Every week Roberto hosts Juice, a soul music show that brings the same warmth, energy, and human connection he delivers on stage. Music, psychology, and performance have always been intertwined in his approach.
