Coaching is a pursuit that takes place across many different disciplines. The finest leaders know that knowledge and wisdom are universal.

After listening to a marvellous masterclass in the art of coaching from rugby coach, Eddie Jones, Rob is inspired to share some of the finest points of the interview, and the wisest lessons learned, so that you can become the best coach you can be.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

If you want to be successful in life, then you have to follow your passion. This requires a knowledge of one’s self, and what drives us.

People who reach the pinnacle of their field, often do not become the great coaches. The great coaches are usually those who did not reach the top, but who developed drive, desire and resilience from not doing so.

Perhaps the greatest skill that any coach can develop is the skill of drawing someone out of their comfort zone.

The psychological side of coaching a team is not just in the game, but also in knowing when someone’s outlook or mood needs work. It can be as simple as encouraging someone to be on their “A” Game when they are not feeling positive.

BEST MOMENTS

‘To become the best, you have to love what you do at a very deep level’

‘You have to find the right captain’

‘Develop respectful relationships, not necessarily friendships’

‘The athletes of today are getting stronger, faster, and better’
