The River Tiger Podcast from Dynamics Coaching
Leading change: paradigm shifts and the importance of being evidence informed. A conversation with climbing coach Pete Edwards.
My guest this episode is Pete Edwards of Prowess Coaching. Firstly I need to say a huge thank you to Pete for taking some time out a few days before his wedding to talk to me.
As with most of my conversations, this is (I hope) of interest to all coaches of all sports.
I have always loved my conversations with Pete so I was delighted that he agreed to let me record one of them. In this conversation we explored many topics around coaching including the evolution of different sports, developing a personal philosophy, ethics in sports, sports with socially constructed rules, and designing practice. The golden threads through the conversation were evidence informed practice and coach learning.
Here are some of the articles and films we recommended in the conversation.
