Coaching with NLP: How to Be a Master Coach Paperback – July 1, 2004

From a coaches standpoint, at what point are you limited by the physical skills of your athletes? There is only so much you can do to bring them to the table. They still have to do the eating, as it were. I found this book a new approach to an old dilemma. Helping athletes focus and put themselves in a place of confidence and power mentally so that their training physically can take over for success. I have used these techniques in football, lacrosse, and shot put/discus/weight/hammer events on both the high school and college levels with much success. The NLP techniques will help any athlete get past the sticking points and plateaus that mental blocks can and do create. All that is needed is a coach willing to undertake this very easily learned, easily taught approach to learning and excelling in any are of life, while minmizing and eliminating fears of failure, and ridicule that are so often a limiting factor in athlete development.

Loving it so far is a great book , Coaching is everything is you working on becoming a Leader

I'm an ICC Coach and this is the man responsible, I was required to buy this book and I refer to it often I also have the accompanying blue workbook. JO is an awesome coach and has built the International Coaching Communitiy or which I'm honored to be one of it's certifed coached.

If you are looking for a good basic book on this topic, this one is fine. It offers good introductory information about coaching in general and NLP. It's easy reading and offers some excellent resources at the end (over 40 pages of resources). About half of the book is on Coaching and the other half is about NLP. If, on the other hand, you are looking for something more sophisticated on the topic, this book is a little light. A better choice would be Ian McDermott's/Wendy Jago's The NLP Coach. It's not as easy to read, but it's much more comprehensive and useful to understand how to use NLP in coaching. I also think even the book "NLP for Dummies" is better.

This is a learned skill to take your business to the next level

amazing book to have even if it's just for personal use. TJ

Great read on the actual structure of a coaching relationship.
