I can help you think about your progression as an elite athlete or coach, to see the big picture as well as the immediate challenges. How to make the most of your assets to achieve your goals. One to one sessions do not have to be onerous. Sessions can be titrated according to need, sometimes more frequent, sometimes less so. I can share with you teaching and training strategies that are future proof. Contact me if you wish to discuss further.
We’ve all come across them in the workplace and teams! I can help you to enjoy the company of impossible people and learn to manage anxiety. So if you are an elite athlete and recognise this scenario get in touch, help is available.
Learn about the apprentice model of coaching, training and education. How this can be applied in the sporting arena. Together with the wider context of your club or team and how to implement this approach across the organisation. Also, how to build in protective factors for mental health.
Constructive Feedback
The constructive provision of feedback is one of the most effective ways to improve any kind of performance
The outcome of feedback should be a motivated learner with a clear view of where they are and what they need to do
The educational alliance (e.g. between Player & Coach) is improved by a strong bond. This promotes learners’ engagement in desired behaviours, such as seeking good quality feedback.
I teach good quality feedback techniques that are tried and tested in medical education, yet transferable to all arenas of learning including the sporting context and across the lifespan.
