Download or read book Coaching for Emotional Intelligence written by Bob WALL and published by AMACOM Div American Mgmt Assn. This book was released on 2006-10-27 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At some point in their careers, all managers face a frustrating and seemingly insurmountable challenge -- the highly intelligent, highly skilled direct report who is failing when he should be excelling. Often, this employee is destroying not only his own career, but also the morale of the rest of the team. While this behavior may initially seem willful, it is more than likely due to a lack of emotional intelligence -- the ability to comprehend one’s emotions, empathize with the feelings of others, and interact with people in ways that promote congenial working relationships. More than any other trait, emotional intelligence is the one variable that can transform a mediocre employee into an exceptional one. Managers now have a new and demanding role. They must become coaches who help their employees to develop emotional intelligence and the positive interpersonal relationships that result. And while this kind of corrective coaching may seem daunting and unpleasant to many managers, it is also achievable with the right tools. In Coaching for Emotional Intelligence, Bob Wall offers coaching strategies that will enable every manager to elicit excellence by improving the negative behaviors and communications flaws that are undermining an employee's performance. The book provides a structured format for formulating and delivering both praise and corrective feedback, as well as a step-by-step method and sample scripts for conducting a coaching session. Readers will: Overcome the fear of coaching on sensitive, personal issues. Learn the critical importance of praise--and how to give it. Understand the influences that shaped the behaviors of the individual being coached. Determine whether an employee is responding to corrective coaching, when to keep him -- and when to fire him. Create an action plan for teaching employees to identify and alter unwanted behavior. Master spontaneous coaching: delivering praise in 15-20 seconds -- and corrective feedback within 45 seconds. Formulate structured conversations when corrective coaching isn’t working. Create successful, detailed, and clear personal, team, and work evaluations and mission statements. The first book of its kind, Coaching for Emotional Intelligence is a thoughtful, realistic, and accessible guide that will change the way managers lead in the workplace -- and will ensure that their employees are reaching their full potential.

Book excerpt: Take a deep dive into the psychology that drives legendary athletes to push themselves to the limits of human ability—elevating them from good to great. On the playing field, natural talent isn’t enough—there’s a mental component that determines whether athletes win the race or wipe out before the finish line. But what separates standout sports stars from the rest? In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory—even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering. Drawing on modern psychology, neuroscience, and performance theory, The Other Talent offers a fascinating exploration of the best athletes' winning mindset, revealing how you can tap into your own potential and strengthen your self-discipline for better emotional intelligence and sustainable performance improvements. Readers will learn: Why physical talent does not guarantee athletic achievement—and how high achievers get the most out of what they have How mental-health challenges and deep psychological needs can empower and propel athletes to succeed The key differences between athletes who enjoy success early in life vs athletes who find their stride as adults The relatable struggles of legendary athletes—including barrier-breaking boxing champion Jack Johnson and record-breaking 63-year-old marathon runner Mariko Yugeto An eye-opening journey into sports philosophy and the competitive nature of the human mind, The Other Talent is a galvanizing resource for both amateur and elite athletes, coaches, parents, and anyone in pursuit of excellence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AbStract: The researcher investigated relationships of emotional intelligence (El) and coaching behaviors of collegiate head coaches (N = 28) of female athletic programs as determined by El scores on the BarOn EQ-I (Bar-On, 1997) which is a measure of emotional aptitude and student-athlete (N = 263) perceived coaching behaviors on the Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS; Chelladurai & Saleh, 1980) . Significant negative correlations existed between Total EQ and Training and Instruction Behavior (r = - .32, p = .05) and Stress Management and Training and Instruction Behavior (r = - .45, p = .01) . No significant (p > .05) relationships were found between any of the other composite scales and subscales. Negative correlations indicated positive relationships due to different scoring methodologies on the BarOn EQ-i and LSS. Head coaches with high Total EQ and Stress Management scores displayed coaching behaviors aimed at facilitating skill acquisition and increasing tactical knowledge. The results add credence to the association between El and effective leadership in sport. Furthermore, the researcher identified important implications to enhance sport experiences for coaches and athletes.

Book excerpt: An emotional intelligence playbook for coaches of female athletes. In order to be a successful coach to female athletes, it is important to understand how girls come to play sports in the first place and what keeps them playing. According to research from Nike and the Women's Sports Foundation, one of the main reasons that girls begin playing sports is to make and be with friends. In other words, their relationships with their teammates and coaches matter a lot. Within these relationships, girls want to be treated as whole people and not just athletes. While relationship building might not traditionally be the focus of coaching, it is an essential element to coaching girls and is therefore the focus of this book. The secret to success lies in the principles of emotional intelligence.As a coach, you teach critical leadership skills and help build inspiring relationships. By training with and embodying the leadership skills found in the principles of emotional intelligence, you will become the supportive role model that your athletes want and need. In turn, your athletes will keep playing long after they have left your team. With your help, they'll receive all the lifelong benefits of sports, including the personality traits that make them future leaders.In our SWEAT training model, we have adapted the evidence-based leadership skills of emotional intelligence (which include mindfulness and gratitude) to athletics. Our training guides you through real-time, applicable exercises so that you can start training and building these new skills.

Download or read book Emotions in Sport Coaching written by Paul Potrac and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emotions are widely acknowledged as an inextricable feature of human behaviour, experience and interaction. They are, arguably, the glue that can bind people together or, alternatively, drive them apart. While social scientists have paid increasing attention to the centrality of emotions in social and pedagogical relationships, the sport coaching literature has remained largely free of emotions. Indeed, there remains a paucity of scholarship exploring how emotions such as excitement, joy, anger, anxiety, guilt, pride and embarrassment may be (re-)produced in, as well as through, the social interactions and contextual relations that constitute coaching. Similarly, we know very little about how these, and other, emotions are embodied in the everyday practice of individuals and groups. The aim of this book was to generate new and exploratory insights into the emotions that are an inherent feature of social relations and individual experience in coaching. Using a variety of psychological and sociological frameworks, the chapters in this book not only explore the interconnections between emotion, identity, cognition and learning, but they also serve as a platform for stimulating further inquiry in this topic area. The chapters were originally published in a special issue of Sports Coaching Review.
