LOOKING INWARD - The importance of understanding your strengths and weaknesses and challenging your most deeply held beliefs

Your Corner Man

If you want to be a better coach/leader then it is vital you understand your own strengths and weaknesses and that you challenge your strongest and most deeply held beliefs sometimes.
Having the confidence to look at and evaluate yourself as a coach can be hard. For many of us, we coach the way we were coached and we loved and revere the men and women who were our teachers. We try and emulate them and often our ideas and concepts go unchallenged. Recognizing our own shortcomings and admitting our mentors may not have had it right all the time can be difficult and rattle us to the core.
Having the courage to turn your power eye inward is an essential element to becoming the best coach and leader you can be. In this episode, I discuss this process, my own feelings on the matter, and share some of my own weaknesses ...and encourage you to do the same!
