The greatest benefit of The One and Only Cool Workbook For Advanced Swimmers is that, upon completion of the workbook, swimmers will have set their own detailed goals, and have acquired a working knowledge of how to use tracking to tell them how each segment of their race is improving both in terms of energy systems and stroke production. They will have a working knowledge of how to communicate with you as their coach. This is thanks to the experience of the Covey Leadership Center, which has worked with Malcombe Baldridge Award winners and Xerox, IBM, and more than half the other Fortune 500 companies in teaching principle centered leadership. I am a recent graduate of the Center's new program for coaches. You know from experience that the best way to motivate advanced performers is to teach them.
People love to learn.
You may even find that you are more inspired to teach, to include your own lessons and tests, once this workbook puts your athletes back in the frame of mind they were when they were wide-eyed age groupers. The format of the book makes it easy for you to pop it open and add whatever you want. The Cool Workbook is also a perfect device to give to young athletes as they prepare to move into your senior practices. I'm sure you can even figure some way to use the workbook as an adjuct to parent education. For every twenty your team orders, you personally will receive a special teacher's handbook with test answers and ideas regarding presentation of the materials in a classroom format.
