About Conscious Coaching: The Art And Science Of Building

Product Description In the world of strength and conditioning, learning how to move others—not just physically, but also psychologically and emotionally—is paramount to getting the most out of them. People are the ultimate performance variable, and understanding how to effectively blend knowledge of proper training with the nuances of human behavior is integral to helping athletes achieve their ultimate goals. Unfortunately, while much attention has been given to the science of physical training, little attention has been given to the science of communication. Conscious Coaching: The Art and Science of Building Buy-In bridges this gap. Readers learn the foundational principles of improving relationships, enhancing engagement, and gaining the trust of athletes through targeted communication. And, every bit as important, readers also learn concrete strategies to apply these principles in day-to-day coaching situations they will inevitably encounter. The result is a game-changing book that sets the stage for coaches to create a culture of success not only within sport, but also beyond. Conscious Coaching is a movement and its time has come. Review Conscious Coaching offers insight into a truly valuable leadership model in which compelling authority runs thin but influence and interpersonal skills are paramount. I've known Brett for over decade and his professionalism, expertise, and leadership make him the perfect person to write this book. - Rob Bollinger / Colonel / U.S. Army, Special Forces Brett has given me the best years of my football career. Athletes want a coach that not only makes them better physically, but also one that understands our world and communicates in a real way- Brett does that. For me it's about the combination of smart training and good communication, and what I love and most of all is he is not just my coach, he is my friend. I'll be working with him until my career is over. - Patrick Chung / Two-time Super Bowl Champion / Safety - New England Patriots Brett Bartholomew is one of the leaders of our profession today. He understands that the strength & conditioning industry is part 'art' and part 'science'. We live in a world today where we have many internet 'gurus' that get the science, understand the physiology and biomechanics. However, the defining element of 'coaching' lies in a coach's ability to interact with an athlete or group of athletes -- understand where they are at, and how to motivate and move a group of athletes forward. Brett's book will give you some insight into the 'art' of how to do this. Creating the environment to teach, motivate, and inspire is a 'must' in today's modern coaching world. Anyone that has seen Brett coach live, or otherwise, sees his passion and energy immediately. Young coaches starting their journey into this profession (or anyone who's been in for years) would do well to soak up the experiences and learn the applied side of coaching. I can't recommend Brett's book enough. It delves into essence of what separates the good coaches from the great coaches. - Dave Tenney / High Performance Director / Seattle Sounders FC This book is the human performance equivalent to the Jim Collins classic "Good to Great." -Art Horne / Head Athletic Trainer of the Atlanta Hawks In this highly diluted industry, rife with negativity, internet experts and gimmicky frauds, Brett is a beacon of positivity, professionalism and authenticity. Coach John Wooden stated, "A coach has not taught until the athlete has learned." 'Coach as a teacher' is a role that Brett expertly fulfills, and I am proud to call him my friend. - Stu McMillan / Performance Director and Lead Sprint Coach ALTIS Our profession gets caught up in the "numbers" of coaching. Numbers don't have personalities or lives. Conscious Coaching exposes us to how an elite level coach thinks and performs! Devour it! - Bob Alejo / Assistant Athletics Director/Director of Strength and Conditioning / North Carolina State University Co
