Developing Your Coaching Philosophy

Have you asked yourself the question, “why do I coach?” This course will guide you to answer that question. Session 1 introduces the concept of developing a coaching philosophy. We will define a coaching philosophy, propose a formula for determining your coaching philosophy, and discuss what it means to be a transformational coach.

Session 2 introduces the concept of core values, discusses the definition of core values, and looks at a case study. As a bonus, you'll find interviews with championship level NCAA coaches (women's basketball and soccer) who share with us the reason why they became a coach, what their coaching purpose is, and how they prioritize their core values as a coach.
