Summary
The measure of a great coach is bringing the best out of athletes.
This is the first guide to motivational interviewing (MI)—the proven approach to harnessing the power of conversations to build relationships and trust—for coaches, sport psychologists, training and rehabilitation specialists, and other affiliated staff. Revealing why conventional ways of giving feedback and addressing conflict are often counterproductive, the book presents tried-and-tested methods for getting through to athletes and helping them to thrive. Leading sport psychologists and MI experts—including MI cofounder Stephen Rollnick—provide effective strategies to fire up motivation, promote ownership of personal goals, address problem behavior on and off the field, enhance performance, and improve teamwork. Included are step-by-step examples and inspiring stories from coaches at all levels. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the book's reproducible quick-reference sheets on key MI skills.
This book is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edited by Stephen Rollnick, William R. Miller, and Theresa B. Moyers.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Inspiring coaches to be their best
An enjoyable way to understand the options coaches have and actions they can take to support and motivate athletes to be their best. Great descriptions of how seeing the athlete also as a person and considering their needs and strengths leads to growth and improved performance. The authors give clear explanations backed up by helpful examples.
A useful and inspiring book not just for coaches but also for the support team, particularly the medical team.
