In today's world of        sport, players must deal with complex issues. Athletes are now more apt        to fight for what they deserve than they were in the Vince Lombardi or        John Wooden eras. That makes your role as the coach tougher than ever.        Not only must you teach athletes the skills, strategies, and discipline        to help them succeed; you also are expected to guide, encourage,        respect, and inspire athletes.     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCreative Coaching\u003c\/i\u003e is a strategic handbook for addressing the        challenges of coaching modern athletes and maximizing their sport        performance.

You will learn to teach, guide, and motivate in a        reciprocal relationship with athletes. Respect and authority are earned        not through a title or through disciplinary measures but through a clear        vision and effective communication that prompts athletes to exert        maximum effort toward their goals and develop their own decision-making        skills—all of which have a direct performance payoff.     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCreative Coaching\u003c\/i\u003e explores three facets of successful coaching. \u003cb\u003ePart        I\u003c\/b\u003e, Developing Qualities for Successful Leadership, provides        assessment tools to help you identify your leadership style and better        understand the athletes you work with. \u003cb\u003ePart II\u003c\/b\u003e, Leading With a        Purpose, will help you position yourself to be a more effective leader        and create a positive training environment based on what you know about        your athletes and your own leadership style. Finally, \u003cb\u003ePart III\u003c\/b\u003e,        Unleashing Prepared Athletes, shows you how to bring it all together to        help athletes reach their potential during competition.     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e       Throughout the book, you'll be challenged with real scenarios in which        you must try to solve problems, and new strategies that have proven to        be effective with today's athletes.     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e       The approach presented in this book gets results. Those who have        immersed themselves and their teams in this approach have produced very        successful records. During the past 10 years, author Jerry Lynch has        worked closely with 21 teams who reached the Final Four—12 of those        teams won the national championship—and with individual clients who have        won a collective total of 15 national championships.     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCreative Coaching\u003c\/i\u003e is more than a \"how to win\" manual.
