THE COMPETENT COACH - coaching philosophies and types of coaching

THE COMPETENT COACH – coaching philosophies and types of coaching is part of the SUP Coach symposium.

This topic explores whether your coaching style is aligned with your coaching philosophy and looks at how it affects your coaching environment. Is your approach favoring a healthy environment for the athletes, or is it clashing and creating an unstable training environment for your athletes? Athletes are different. The same are coaches. Because they are different, you can’t mass-produce training. You have to be aware of your own and your athletes’ strengths and weaknesses and how it affects your common goals.

Format

It will be a mix of presentation, workshops and dialogue so you’re expected to participate actively.

Duration

4 hours, including breaks

Price

60 EURO
