Legendary American college football coach, Eddie Robinson once said,
“Coaching is a profession of love. You can’t coach people unless you love them.”
We forget that sometimes.
We identify a weakness or poor outcome and put our coaching hat on to get a different result.
We look at a person and wonder how we can coach them to do better.
But coaching is a profession of love.
A true coach is doing what she does because she wants the best for her people.
A true coach wants his people to shine and thrive.
A true coach identifies and works hard to bring out the greatness in others.
A true coach genuinely cares and the team knows that they are genuinely valued.
A true coach knows her team’s family and the names of their children and fur babies.
The results come after all of the above.
A true coach knows that.

I really enjoyed this. It holds true in all aspects of coaching. I was told early in my nursing career that you should learn at least one personal fact about every patient you cared for or you weren’t providing good nursing care. Many years later, now coaching my own clients and patients, I still take the time to really learn about them on a personal level. This has allowed me to create a more personalized experience for them and they have had greater success meeting their goals. Caring about the people you serve is the game changer.
