How can work with a Performance Coach help?
Working with a Performance Coach can help:

Content: For example, in regard to coaching football, coaching does not teach the basics of playing the game, but it focuses on how one or more players are playing the game. Coaching seeks to identify weak areas of performance and provides various forms and methods of teaching the player how to improve general playing techniques in one or more specific aspects of playing the game. Thus, the objective of coaching is to extend the playing abilities of the player, develop their playing techniques and styles, improve their general performance, and to perfect their playing of the game to maximize the likelihood of winning. The focus is on tasks, roles, and activities: Performance Coaching focuses on raising the quality of performance of an individual in regard to one or more tasks, roles, or activities. Unlike sports team coaching, Performance Coaching ordinarily involves only two participants, the subject and the coach. Thus, the coaching situation is one in which one person, the coach, facilitates in a variety of ways the talents, skills, and abilities of another person, the subject of the coaching. The coaching objective is to guide the subject in making a variety of forms of positive changes in their thinking and actions in regard to one or more activities, usually work activities, to improve and perfection their functioning. Advancing knowledge, skills, and expertise: It is important to realize that, while Performance Coaching may involve advice and the sharing of experience offered by the coach to the subject, Performance Coaching entails considerably more than simply advice and experience sharing.
