In this fascinating conversation, I sit down with Keith Davids and Ian Renshaw (two of the founding fathers of the ecological approach) to explore the critical challenges facing coach education and athlete development today. We dive deep into why the traditional cognitive-information processing approach still dominates coaching practice, despite decades of research suggesting more effective alternatives. 3 Key Takeaways: The Educational Paradigm Problem – Coach education has been built on the same linear, knowledge-transfer models used in formal schooling, creating a massive "knowing-doing gap" that leaves coaches unprepared for real-world practice. The Dualism Dilemma – You can't truly pick and mix between ecological and information-processing theories if you claim to follow a scientific approach – they're built on fundamentally different assumptions about how humans learn. The Moral Imperative – Coach educators have a duty to expose practitioners to alternative learning paradigms, not just the dominant cognitive approach, so coaches can make genuinely informed choices about their practice. This conversation challenges us to think critically about how we develop coaches and whether we're truly serving the practitioners and participants who depend on quality coaching experiences.

In this conversation, I sit down with Mike Porteous, triathlon coach and author of the book on 'Beyond Belief' - the art of confidence-centred coaching'. https://amzn.to/3G5ZKh2 Mike's journey from academic to civil servant to failed mountain bike business owner to successful triathlon coach reveals fascinating insights about what really matters in developing both athletes and coaches. We explore Mike's revolutionary approach to confidence-centred coaching, which places how people feel at the very heart of the coaching process. Rather than focusing purely on performance metrics or development outcomes, Mike argues for a third way that prioritises the subjective experience of both coach and athlete. Three Key Takeaways: 1. Confidence isn't a thing you acquire - it's actually a combination of three feelings: excitement (thrilled anticipation), composure (control over what you can influence whilst being calm about what you can't), and fluency (losing yourself in the moment and finding flow). 2. The best coaches often aren't the best athletes - Mike's own journey from being a mediocre mountain biker to helping athletes achieve extraordinary feats shows that empathy, presence, and the ability to be alongside someone on their journey matters more than technical prowess. 3. Drawing out beats putting in - Rather than instructing athletes what to do, confidence-centred coaching focuses on helping people discover their own solutions through feeling and awareness, creating more resilient and self-reliant performers. This conversation will change how you think about coaching, confidence, and what it really means to help someone reach their potential. Ready to transform your coaching approach?
