9:00 AM - 10:00 AM Coaching Coaches to Lead by Kenna Smoak-Minnici, MA, CISSN, CSCS, RSCC*D This presentation will serve as an outline we use to continue the growth of our Sport Performance Coaches. We have a three-step development plan to mirror the 47 month experience our Cadet-Athletes will face. Initial hires will focus on advancing professional knowledge. Guided feedback and mentorship will allow the coach to gain interpersonal knowledge. Deliberate practice of quality and quantity coaching will lead to an advanced team member on the Sport Performance staff who will intuitively seek out intrapersonal knowledge and advancement. Sharing these guidelines can help staff development in settings beyond West Point. |
