“As long as a person doesn’t know what (s)he doesn’t know, (s)he doesn’t grow.” John Maxwell
Every team member, presumably, loves the game and the sense of working together toward a common goal of scoring some wins.
But one of the most important components of team building and development is the role of the coach. The coach offers insights into the game, plans for new ways of doing things, and is clear on the team’s objectives on strategies. Coaches are not only veterans of the game, they study it, analyze successes and failures, and guide the players to perform to their best. They inspire, motivate and ultimately want the best for the team and for each of their players.
The coaching role works as well in the business world as it does in the sports world.
Because coaching is a confidential one-on-one relationship, it not only delivers results but is known to prevent problems. It integrates practical behavioral change over time by deepening an awareness of the individual’s unique strengths as a foundation for improvement.
Participants benefit from the wisdom, knowledge and proven expertise of the coach.
