The Last Lesson from Inside Out Coaching
I have posted at least five lessons from a book that is my favorite of this year, Inside Out Coaching. The following is Joe Ehrmann’s adaptation of a poem I have blogged about before called Children Learn What They Live by Dorothy Law Nolte
Players Learn By How I Coach
If I coach with hostility- my players learn to be hostile
If I coach with ridicule- my players learn to disengage
If I coach with shame- my players learn to be ashamed
If I coach with sarcasm- my players learn to hide
If I coach with love- my players learn how to be loved
If I coach with tolerance- my players learn how to be patient
If I coach with encouragement- my players learn how to encourage
If I coach with empathy- my players learn to express their feelings
If I coach with compassion- my players learn to care about others
If I coach with praise- my players learn to value themselves
If I coach with fairness- my players learn justice
If I coach with affirmation- my players discover their full potential
If I coach with acceptance and friendship- my players learn how to find and give love in their relationships.

I am reading the book, InsideOut Coaching by Joe Ehrmann, as recommended by Coach Mike Boyle. The excerpt makes you think about how we are peceived as leaders, coaches and parents.
