4.2 Assignment BUS 303

When we hear the word coach, we first think of sports. Whether we are coaching little league, high school football, or professional teams, the same good coaching principles apply. Coaches are leaders and must inspire the people on their teams to give their best, or in some cases, more than their best. As an example, how many times have you watched a game where your team was losing? Then, they come out of the locker room after meeting with the coach, and somehow, they win the game. Is this a miracle? No! It’s good coaching—inspiration, encouragement, confidence, commitment, all these things, and more—that makes up a good coach or leader. 

Coaching is the “process of equipping people with the tools, knowledge, and opportunities they need to develop and become more successful” as defined by Peterson and Hicks (1966). Whether we are coaching sports or a multinational company, the principles are the same. Coaching is not an easy task, but we all can learn how to coach and lead more effectively.
