Life After Coaching
In January 2005, Hart was appointed to the Board of Cullen Sports, owners of the New Zealand Warriors, a New Zealand rugby league club, for which he later served as the Executive Director of Football. He also served on the boards of a number of other companies, provides consultancy services in the fields of human resources and leadership, and is an active speaker on the lecture circuit. In December 2011 Hart resigned from the Warriors and took up a position as the New Zealand PGA Pro-Am organising committee chairman.
For his services to rugby, Hart was appointed an Officer of The New Zealand Order of Merit in The Queen's Birthday Honours 1997.
Hart is the co-author (with Paul Thomas) of two books, Straight from the Hart (1993) and Change of Hart (1997) (ISBN 1869585712); the latter gives a first-hand account of the transition to professional rugby, in which he played a significant part.

Famous quotes containing the word life:
“The way to go to the circus, however, is with someone who has seen perhaps one theatrical performance before in his life and that in the High School hall.... The scales of sophistication are struck from your eyes and you see in the circus a gathering of men and women who are able to do things as a matter of course which you couldn’t do if your life depended on it.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
