Description
Elite athletes and all other participants (of all ages) in our sport and movement culture are members of societies in radical change where identity, self-surveillance, burnout and social isolation are some of the challenges or threads that also have an impact on the world of sport and leisure. The intention of this workshop is to invite participants to rethink dialogue as a central phenomenon in coaching.Traditionally coaches and educators put too much focus on goals in their work with their clientele (athletes, exercises, youth, children, and elderly). However, goals change and develop during conversation and over time (Ordóñez et al., 2009). The intention of this workshop is to invite participants towards developing an attitude, where they manage to engage with their coaching partner(s) in transformative and fruitful dialogues with an emphasis on values and meaning making – a so-called third generation coaching (Stelter, 2014; 2019).
The workshop participants will learn something about:
1. societal changes as the basis to understand human interaction in sport and leisure
2. experiential, existential, relational and narrative theories as a possible theoretical foundation of fruitful coaching dialogues
3. the central methodological elements for a trustful and collaborative relationship
The workshop leader has a strong intention to create a lively interaction between participants and between participants and himself. The objective is to create a learning environment for reflective practitioners. All participants will receive a handout that unfolds some of the central aspects of the content and guidelines for concrete exercises conducted during the workshop.
