From Warehouses to World Champions: 7 Lessons in better coaching

THE PROBLEM > > "The result is a generation of coaches who know a great deal but struggle to make any of it matter." > "You're fine at your job, but you're also very forgettable." THE SOLUTION > This is not theory for theory's sake. Inside: - The Written Mirror: a journaling practice that keeps the coach on the floor aligned with the person you said you wanted to be- Why a problem definer beats a problem solver, and the exact questions to ask- Co-design tools like Choose Your Own Adventure that turn compliance into ownership- The Einstellung effect and the MAYA principle: how your own expertise blocks you, and how to deploy it so people lean in rather than tune out- How to build the peer, mentor and observer who will keep your coaching honest THE ACTION Every chapter ends with tasks. Simple ones. Not easy ones. They compound, but only if you do them, reflect on what happened, and act on what you find. "More isn't better. Better is better." Read a chapter. Complete the tasks. Move on. The coaches who hold up their end will look back in twelve months and struggle to recognise the coach they were when they opened this book. The question is what you do once it's done.
