In the world of strength and conditioning, learning how to move others not just physically, but also psychologically and emotionally is paramount to getting the most out of them. People are the ultimate performance variable, and understanding how to effectively blend knowledge of proper training with the nuances of human behavior is integral to helping athletes achieve their ultimate goals. Unfortunately, while much attention has been given to the science of physical training, little attention has been given to the science of communication.

“Coaches rely far too much on asking open-ended questions,” says Marcia Reynolds. But questions only seek answers — inquiry provides insight. When, instead of just questions, clients hear their thoughts, opinions, and beliefs spoken by someone else, it prompts them to critically consider how their thinking affects their goals. Reynolds cites the latest brain science to show why reflective inquiry works and provides techniques, tips, and structures for creating breakthrough conversations.

To create a more sustainable transformation in the people you coach, you need to start with your own mindset. As a coach, you know you can’t change what you do, unless you alter what you believe first. By shedding the ineffective scripts, trappings and beliefs that a lifetime of personal interactions, professional training and even your parents have taught you, you can reset your thinking to a beginner’s mentality and so begin a fulfilling and exciting journey to coaching mastery.

Accelerate narration to 1.45!
This is the most informative, insightful, concrete and useful book on professional coaching I have read or listened to so far. I am greatful to the author for writing it!
This book is suitable for the more advanced professionals, and is trully a gem.
The narration is easily fixed to near-perfection by merely accelerating the playback speed to 1.45.

The best coaching book on Audible?
I've been reading coaching books, lots of them. I coach people and I manage coaches so its important to be able to offer professional guidance to my team. I'm now on my fourth read through of Laser Focused Coaching and we're reading it as a team. If you coach, or want to, I think you should read this, you'll get more done in less time and with greater clarity of purpose.
