The Heart of Coaching
Docheff, Dennis M.; Gerdes, Dan
Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators, v28 n2 p28-32 2015
This article challenges coaches to address the more personal, human elements of coaching--the HEART of coaching. While there is much research on numerous aspects of coaching, this article provides ideas that make a lasting impact on the hearts of athletes. Using HEART as an acronym, five elements of effective coaching are presented: Humility, Encouragement, Authenticity, Relationships, and Toughness.
