Book excerpt: "Humanistic coaching is a philosophy that focuses on promoting athletes' personal growth and development by empowering athletes and fostering positive interpersonal relationships between coaches and athletes (Lombardo, 1987; Lyle, 2002). Despite the efforts to describe and define humanistic coaching, few studies have empirically investigated how coaches apply its principles in sport, how they impact youth athletes, and the perceptions of the individuals involved. Thus, the purpose of this dissertation was to develop and deliver a humanistic coaching workshop while examining coaches' learning experiences, as well as investigating the impact of humanistic coaching on youth development through sport. This was accomplished through three original manuscripts, each addressing a different aspect of the larger purpose. The first study involved developing and delivering a humanistic coaching workshop, as well as investigating coaches' perceptions of this workshop and their experiences using humanistic coaching. Results revealed coaches perceived the workshop to be effective in teaching the humanistic principles and how to apply them in youth sport settings. In addition, the coaches reported positive outcomes in their athletes related to autonomy, communication, motivation, and willingness to help teammates. While their perceptions of athlete development provided valuable insight to how athletes responded to this coaching philosophy, it did not assess the athletes' outcomes. As such, the second study assessed the impact of a humanistic coaching workshop on the development of youth athletes of trained or untrained coaches. Results showed that athletes of trained coaches showed stronger connection to their coaches. The findings also suggested that participants increased their antisocial behaviours, yet this increase was lower for athletes of trained coaches. These findings suggest that teaching humanistic coaching principles may help foster developmental outcomes in youth sport participants. Building on these results, the next study qualitatively examined youth athletes' perceptions of humanistic coaching and how it impacted their development. This is particularly important considering humanistic coaching is a philosophy that advocates for the inclusion of athletes as active agents in the training process. Thus, the third study investigated the experiences of student-athletes of coaches who had been trained to use humanistic principles to foster personal development. Results showed athletes described their coaches as being engaged in their lives beyond sport, helping with personal issues and getting involved in their education. Athletes described having a trusting relationship with their coaches, and reported learning both sport and life skills from them. In sum, this dissertation contributes to our understanding of humanistic coaching, how it can be applied to sport, and its impact on youth development. Results indicated that teaching coaches the principles and strategies of humanistic coaching was an effective way of improving their ability to apply these principles, which in turn positively impacted youth athletes' development through sport. This dissertation provides recommendations for future research that can further improve best practices for youth sport coaches." --
