Love What You Play

7: The Capacity to Inspire | Wayne Goldsmith

“The game is their teacher. The drills aren’t their teacher, [the] engagement exercises aren’t their teacher. No one lies in bed dreaming of doing drills. They lie in bed at night dreaming about playing more with their friends.”

Coaching from junior sporting events to the Olympic Games has given Wayne Goldsmith international credibility as a “whole sport” innovator and educator. He shares some of his experiences with us and what he’s learned in the meantime. In this talk, he discusses the difference between How, What, and Why coaches, genuine commitments to lifelong learning, and the capacity to inspire through emotional connection.
