Alan Keane coaches the England boys U18 basketball team. Alan Keane has been on a journey! I know it's a cliche but if ever the phrase was applicable it with Alan.

In this remarkably honest and refreshingly candid conversation Alan shares his transformation from being a coach that only cared about results, tactics, techniques and compliance to becoming a coach that cares about the person, their learning, their development and their ownership of the process of development.

Highlights from the discussion include:

- Alan's developmental journey and how he has a 'triangle of influences' that guide his learning.
- How he had to get more vulnerable than he thought possible to expand his horizons
- How he called a time out and only said 3 words "talk to me"
- How letting the players guide their timeouts led to transformational insights (from the quietest player on the team)
- His experiences of taking what he had learned into his work environment as a teacher and the unbelievable results for the teachers and the pupils
