Kevin O'Connell GETS it!

from Essential Coaching Conversations · host Essential Coaching

A recent ESPN article highlighting Kevin O'Connell's approach as Head Coach of the Minnesota Vikings was a breath of fresh air. Listen as we discuss how coaching CAN be done this way, and Kevin O'Connell's unique (which shouldn't be, but it is) approach to connecting with players and building their confidence. Complete with quotes from the article, including by his colleagues and his players, we get a picture of a modern day coach who understands that connection, trust, engagement, and motivation are the bedrocks to long-term success.
