Creativity in Coaching

Every composer starts with the same notes. Every author starts with the same alphabet. All artists start with the same palette of basic colors. Then why aren’t there more Beethoven’s, Hemingway’s and Rembrandts? The answer is genius and the creative process. Coaching is similar; at the heart of coaching is the creative process. The coach is no different than the composer or the artist. The coach’s palette is the human body expressed through movement. For that means it is necesary to think outside the box. Each athlete is a case study of one, they are highly individual. Two athletes could do the some event or play the same position and have entirely different training needs. This is what makes coahing so exciting and special.
