In this episode of Deep Dive Drive, recorded on my morning commute, I talk about one of the most important skills a coach can develop — adaptability.

• No session ever goes exactly to plan.
• No group is ever the same.
• No two players are ever identical.

In this episode, I explore why great coaching isn’t about rigid plans — it’s about the ability to adapt in real time.

I talk about:

• Why adapting within sessions improves learning and engagement
• How reading the room is just as important as the session plan
• The importance of thinking outside the box when things aren’t working
• Why adaptability helps build strong, positive cultures
• How every individual needs a slightly different approach to get the best out of them

This episode is a reminder that coaching is a people-first profession. The more adaptable you are, the more connected your players feel — and the better they perform.

If you want to grow as a coach, leader, or educator, adaptability isn’t optional — it’s essential.

Be flexible. Stay curious. Keep learning.

One drive at a time.
