Playfulness in coaching : exploring our untapped potential through playfulness, creativity and imagination
\"What do we mean by playfulness? Playfulness and play are no longer seen as only of benefit to children's learning and development, but are being used increasingly for coaching adults in the context of serious challenges and issues. Benefits include better communication, understanding, self-awareness, relationship-building, creativity, ideation and innovation in a business environment. This book is the first to introduce and expand on the idea of playfulness as an approach in coaching. Playfulness in Coaching fully explains the serious role of playfulness and provides the why and the how for new and experienced coaches. Using case studies throughout, the book takes a broad and evidence-led look at the relevant areas of playfulness in coaching - contracting, developing insights, forming direct communications, how to prime the coach and the client for playfulness, identifying and overcoming barriers, assessing risks, and closing a session. It is packed with theory, research, stories from practice, ideas and inspiration for understanding and applying playfulness in life and work. This will be an invaluable resource for coaches, particularly those with experience who are moving towards intermediate and mastery level. The book has been written with coaches working with corporate clients in mind, particularly in the context of challenges in a VUCA environment. It will also be relevant to HR and Learning and Development managers who source coaches for organisations and oversee internal coaches, as well as managers-as-coaches, life coaches and mental health professionals\"-- Provided by publisher.

Coaching Practices that Promote Adult Competitive Sport Participation
Le but de la présente étude est d’explorer ce que les entraîneurs réussissent bien auprès d’athlètes maîtres ( plus âgés et au-delà de leur performance optimale), ce qu’ils pourraient réussir mieux et dans quel domaine ils ont besoin d’appui dans le développement d’approches psychosociales du coaching. Huit entraîneurs du domaine de l’aviron et membre d’une organisation nord américaine ont été interviewés sur la base du sondage Coaching sportif pour adulte. Les entrevues ont été analysées thématiquement. Ces entraîneurs ont un conception mature de leur identité, des orientations compétitives variées et sont intéressés à une programmation d’entraînement de qualité. Selon eux, ils font bien leur travail mais ils affirment qu’ils ont des difficultés à créer un programme d’entraînement personnalisé, à déterminer les préférences des athlètes pour une modalité de responsabilisation et à transmettre leur savoir. Ils affirment vivre des défis contextuels hors de leur contrôle qui restreignent leur application des thèmes du coaching orienté vers les adultes. Les entraîneurs voudraient une formation de ce type et sont intéressés à avoir du feedback sur leur coaching. Des recommandations sont mises de l’avant sur les modèles de développement à long terme des athlètes.
