Become a more effective coach and maximise your archers' experience!

As well as being an Archery GB Senior Coach, Anna is also a Level 5 Coaching Professional. Whilst this is a different sort of coaching to the archery coaching Anna typically practises, it is a great tool to develop coaches' confidence, communication and relational skills as well as help them to unpick knotty problems. 

If you engage in this sort of coaching, rather than simply telling you what to do, Anna will use an integration of different coaching styles and approaches to empower you to develop and master your own goals and skills.

Every coaching relationship is unique but here are some examples of what coaching could do for you:

• understand yourself better - what are your strengths, triggers and how can you maximise and build on these to develop your coaching style;
• resolve interpersonal challenges - address recurring conflicts with other coaches/archers; 
• boost self confidence and belief - overcome self-doubt and imposter feelings and replace them with confidence and clarity;
• increase strategic thinking - shift from reactive problem solving in your coaching to long-term planning; 
• improve team leadership - develop your skills to motivate, support and guide others in your club or coaching team and;
• manage change - cope with new responsibilities, transitions or difficult circumstances in your club.

A meta-analysis conducted in 2016 by Jones, Woods and Guillaume into the effectiveness of workplace coaching, concluded that individual performance increased by up to 124% following professional coaching. Who wouldn't want to be 124% better at their job whether that is their actual paid employment or a sports coach role they undertake for fun?  Read the article here.
