Synopsis "Sport Coach Learning and Professional Development: Supporting Coaches in Performance Sport"

Sport Coach Learning and Professional Development instead describes the genesis and theoretical foundations of an emerging workflow for supporting sport coaches learning and professional development in performance and high-performance sport. A clear exposition and critical insight into coaches' learning and professional development, and of coaching practice, provides the foundations for an Embedded, Relational and Emergent Coach Learning and Professional Development Strategy.Learning and development is not something that can be 'done' to people; rather it is about working alongside, supporting experienced coaches to identify and resolve meaningful questions that generate personal and professional growth. This approach more appropriately attends to individual differences in biographies, perspectives, roles and socio-cultural settings. Whilst the focus and nature of support shifts to reflect the goals that coaches and athletes are working towards relative to the changing demands of their context, the approach consistently centres around three overlapping themes: 1. Supporting coaches to learn through and from their everyday experiences.2. Supporting coaches to reflect on and explore the nature of the experiences they create for others.3. Supporting coaches - being available, listening, offering reassurance, support and caring.Working through this process necessitates close cooperation and frequently incorporates reflective dialogue, collaborative planning and shared enquiry. The work is therefore both relational and developmental. Coach and Coach Developer both bring something to the working relationship, which in turn shapes and influences the nature of the work undertaken. The nature of the goals pursued, the strategies employed and the collective courses of action taken are always shaped and influenced by the interpersonal resources that emerge though the work together (the overlap).The application and effective deployment of the strategy is illustrated and illuminated in a series of case studies. These demonstrate the efficacy of the strategy but also the lessons learned from working with coaches in their embedded contexts. This book is key resource for coaches, coach developers, students and researchers working in the overlapping fields of sport coaching, learning and professional development.
