Second Set Of Eyes: How Great Coaches Become Champions
GREAT COACHES HAVE THEIR OWN COACH
Coaching has changed. The old models of success are outdated and don’t match the massive sporting organizations of today. Winning in the current landscape is not about your individual brilliance; it’s derived from your ability to elicit collective greatness from a multidisciplinary team.
In this revolutionary book, Cody Royle takes you into the inner sanctum to explore the highly secretive world of coaching coaches. From legends like Pep Guardiola and Eddie Jones to emerging stars like Crystal Kaua and Carmelina Moscato, the world’s greatest coaches are becoming even better by having a dedicated coach for their leadership, performance, and well-being.
In Second Set of Eyes, you’ll learn valuable unconventional truths, such
• How individualism cripples you and your organization
• Why you should treat yourself like a performer
• How being coached doesn't jeopardize your leadership authority
In addition, you’ll find answers to common questions people ask,
• Do I still need a coach if I’m experienced?
• What is the return on investment of hiring a leadership coach?
• Do leaders in other industries receive coaching?
As a head coach today, your job is to elicit collective greatness from your entire organization. But it starts with you. When you get better, everyone gets better.
