What is Transformational Coaching?
As defined by Dr. Jean Cȏté: effective coaching is the consistent application of integrated professional, interpersonal, and
intrapersonal knowledge to improve athletes’ competence, confidence, connection, and character in specific coaching contexts.
Coaching expertise is the direct knowledge of a sport. Coaching effectiveness is whether you can apply that expertise to athletes and situations in order to maximize athletes learning and outcomes.
