Peerless

I devour books on coaching, mentoring, teaching, counseling - just about anything regarding how to best help others grow I try to read. I had never heard of this book prior to picking it up recently after seeing it in my recommendations, but I am more than pleasantly surprised that I found it.

It’s not a long read, and perhaps the only knock I’d give it is the tone of the narrator/author is very academic and I found myself getting distracted once or twice with something else if I wasn’t sitting and giving the book my full attention , but considering the subject matter that didn’t bother me at all. The author gives very clear, concise and absolutely invaluable information about how athletes’ minds work, both neurologically speaking as humans and emotionally across the various general personality types, namely in an environment when the they are being physically challenged while being taught. That information is supported by brilliantly simple methods (e.g., how to speak with forethought/intent, and how anyone in a position of authority, obviously in this book said authority being derived from mutually agreed upon client/coach or player/coach scenarios, can become so much more effective at helping their pupils grow by paying constant attention to intonation, being aware of the emotional energy they bring to a given session and how that will unavoidably alter the efficacy of the entire session as well as each message within it, positively or detrimentally, and so many other verbal and nonverbal nuances that we as teachers of any sort often overlook if we get lost in our own thoughts or needs rather than being attuned to the needs of those we are there to help.

I sincerely can’t recall a single part of the book where I found a new piece of information that I hadn’t come across or known in one way or another, but this is one of those rare books when even if that is the case I still came away from it feeling like I had learned a lot. I highly recommend this for anyone that does teaching of any sort, and will be re reading this a few more times.
