Coachability

Back to blog homepage for: Owen's Observations

OK, so my second post follows closely on from my first, and you'd never guess it but I am a Rugby fan! A while back, Nick Easter (No.8 for Harlequins and England) was writing in the Metro. It interested me because you hear loads about being a great coach, and what sort of questions to ask etc etc, but rarely from the other persons point of view - the coachee. It was simple phrase, but should give all of us food for thought if we ever find ourselves being 'coached';

"Take on board what (the coach) says, but don't take any negative comments personally as it can affect your coachability."
