3️⃣ Does coaching work?

It depends. The right coach makes all the difference. Some specialize in early-career transitions, others in executive leadership. If they’re not the best fit, they’ll often refer you to someone who is.

3️⃣ Does coaching work?

It depends. Goals, coaching style, and execution all matter. If a coach isn't the right fit, referrals happen—performance coaches often refer to sport psychologists, and vice versa.

2️⃣ Choosing the right approach

Frameworks guide solutions. A coach optimizing practice may use comparative analysis (e.g., 2x2 matrices), while a performance coach may focus on environment, habits, and team dynamics.

1️⃣ Identifying the real problem

Most coaching starts with an evaluation—not just fixing symptoms. If a team struggles under pressure but has no structured practice, is pressure the issue, or is it poor preparation? Good coaching digs deeper.

First, let’s clear something up: No single coach is an expert in everything. Performance, mental health, mechanics, analysis, strategy—these all require different skill sets. A jack of all trades is often a master of none.
