“Coaches and Scouts.” Occupational Outlook Handbook, 2014-2015. Us Bureau of Labor Statics. 8 January 2014. Web. 6 October 2015
Occupational Outlook Handbook is loaded with factual information. Occupational Outlook Handbook gives the exact requirements that are needed to be a coach and scouter. This website provides important information such as the average salary earning, job duties, job outlook, and degree needed and qualities needed. This site tells me that in 2012 the median pay was $28,360 per year, and the typical degree needed to be a coach and scouter is a bachelor’s degree.
Occupational outlook handbook is a great source that gives updated information. This source was published by the government.

The article states, “This pipeline argument is erroneous in this instance because of the number of minority players in college football that make up the “future coach career pool.” This article tells that white coaches and minorities coaches have different career trajectories and position that is not respected for minorities as a head …show more content…
I feel as if the NCAA shows differences between races and that is not somewhere I would feel comfortable coaching. This source tells me some considerable differences in the career stepping stones of respectively, whites and minorities have been improved. This source is a very important subject that helps me see and expect things like this to happen.
"Coaching For Change." Irene Leonard News Article. Association of Legal Administrators, October 1999. Web. 27 October 2015.
This article is about a speaker by the name of Irene Leonard that gives a coaching session. Irene Leonard provided four objectives for her participants to do. These objectives were to get to know each other, make a list of values that were important to them, examine and rate all aspects of life using a worksheet she called the “Wheel of Life”, and the fourth was to get goals for each area of life. Irene worked with her audience and made them comfortable.
This article basically helps me to realize as a coach I should make my players comfortable. When people are comfortable around their coach they tend to engage more. This source is from a learner’s perspective. This article shows me that coaching can be beneficial and a powerful tool to be successful in leading

    White coaches are preferred because alumni are white and those hiring the coaches know that the white alumni will identify with white coaches. As a result, the only people that can be blamed for taking racist actions are the decision makers. If the decision is made by a large group of people, then no single person can be blamed. Stereotypes that have insignificant effects on a small scale then have significant effects when large groups of decision makers are accounted for.…

    Up until the 1990’s, the front offices of NBA teams were filled with mainly white people. White coaches, white general managers, white owners, and black people were not getting chances to coach at the NBA level. However, in 1987, Donald Sterling, the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, decided to have “Hall of Famer Elgin Baylor join the team as the general manager and vice president of basketball operations” (1984-2001 Moving to Los Angeles, LA Clippers Wikipedia). Baylor kept this job until finally, in 2009, “Baylor [then] decided to resign after 22 years as an executive with the team. ‘We greatly appreciate Elgin’s efforts during his time with the Clippers, and we wish him the very best,’ owner and chairman of the board Donald Sterling said” (Elgin Baylor out as GM, laclippersonline.org). Since 1987, the number of black NBA coaches, general managers, and owners has shot up drastically. In a recent study, “using data from the 2010-2011 season, the study found that in professional positions in the league, 36 percent were held by people of color,” (NBA receives A; remains leader in sport diversity, usatoday.com) first out of all the major North American sport leagues. Dwane Casey, Byron Scott, Mike Brown, and Jay-Z are just a few examples of black people crunching the numbers for NBA…

    This past June marked the 40th anniversary of Title IX, a United States law stating that no person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance. Although the wide spectrum in which Title IX covers includes many educational issues, its application to NCAA athletics has especially been confounded, because, unlike most educational institutions, athletic programs are gender-segregated by sport. In terms of intercollegiate athletics, Title IX essentially states that that all academic institutes of higher education are required to accommodate students with equal access to athletic participation, regardless of gender. This means that the overall number of athletic teams, scholarships, athletes, quality and quantity of athletic facilities, access to academic resources, access to physical treatment, along with an abundance of additional goods, services and resources offered by school’s athletic departments must be equal between men’s and women’s athletics. After forty years of this law being instated, it is evident that Title IX has accomplished its goal of providing equal opportunity to female athletes in collegiate athletics. However, unintentional negative outcomes have stemmed from this law, and is thus no longer acting in a positive manner for NCAA and should therefore be amended.…

    Years ago former commenter Jimmy the Greek and Rush Limbaugh tried to explained black athletes were bred for their physical skill and white athletes were bred for they’re intelligence. The comment was blatant racism, but there have been other ways at insinuating the same point. Doug Williams their theory wrong in 1988 by being the first starting black quarterback to win a Super bowl. Another successful black QB is former NFL M.V.P. Steve McNair, he led his team to the Super Bowl in 2005. He also played at a small black college because other school recruited him to play on defense when QB was his natural position. If that wasn’t enough, for the second time in history the two teams in a championship game was led by black head coaches. In 2007, the Indianapolis Colts head coach, Tony Dungy and Chicago Bears’ head coach Lovie Smith made history in the NFL by being the first black head…

    Tale of Two Coaches

    Coaching and leadership seem to be synonymous with each other, in that if you’re a high caliber coach you must be a great leader, how else would you have achieved your success. While coaching in the NCAA division 1 basketball the goal is to win national championships, while also being a mentor to your students. Bobby Knight is a great basketball legend at Indiana, with a past of outrageous unacceptable behavior to the fans and to players, while also having one of the best collegiate records of all time. Coach Krzyzewski was also a great coach, was mentored by coach Knight and went on to be a legend at Duke. Coach K’s style of coaching was less dramatic and more heartfelt in his approach. Coach K’s was concerned for his player’s feelings and his style of motivating his players centered on less dramatizations on and off the court. Both Coaches were successful; one got into the heads of its players through coercive intimidation to be the best, the other through caring, talking and high levels of trust. Which coach is best depends on whom you ask and what perspective of coaching leadership style you prefer, or it could be a generational time difference or simply opposite styles that worked and produced results.…

    I have also believed philosophically, that it is a leader's responsibility to be able to adapt their style and not expect those they lead to conform to the leader’s style (Hersey & BlaNchard, 1969). My leadership philosophy has embraced a situational leadership style because it adopts the notion that leadership is not a static, all knowing entity, but rather an entity that can change and grow continually to meet the needs of others based on the situation. The roles and responsibilities of an administrator in a K-12 setting can be extremely varied and call for a variety of different facets. What has blossomed during this course, is an understanding of the various situations that coaching for performance can be integrated to meet these needs.…

    Coaching Journey

    • 2569 Words
    • 11 Pages

    RP-SG group has embarked on coaching initiatives for the senior managers of the group since last year. Three very senior leaders went through coaching intervention. The coach in this case has been an external professional. Subsequently the HR leadership of the group concluded that such coaching initiatives need to be cascaded through the organisation and therefore to run these interventions in a cost efficient manner, it is better to create a pool of internal coaches. With that backdrop the group invited CFI to educate us and help create a pool of internal certified coaches. 24 senior leaders were chosen to go through this journey along with CFI. I was chosen as one of them. The journey started with a 4 days classroom training facilitated by CFI. Post this training and education (which helped us to clear our Level 1 requirements towards becoming a certified coach); the group assigned two coachees to me for my internship journey as a coach. The first few meetings were in large groups where the concerns and questions of all coachees were addressed by CFI directly. AK was assigned to me as a coachee for my coach internship program. Subsequently the triad meeting between AK’s superior, AK and I was held, where AK’s reporting superior shared AK’s strengths and areas of improvement. Some of the clear positives are AK’s passion for perfection, his ability to bring systems and process discipline and he is very energetic and enthusiastic. His superior also highlighted his areas of improvement as his ability to present his business case without getting carried away with emotions. Secondly, his ability to understand his people’s emotions and affiliation needs. AK’s superior highlighted that if he improves on these areas then AK’s role can be enlarged and…

    The major aim outlined within the coaching documents of this decade is the call for coaching to be considered a profession, by the year of 2012 (DCMS, 2002, SCUK, 2006). Furthering upon this wish is the aim of the country to have a sports system that is the envy of the world by 2016 (SCUK, 2007). Therefore it is clear to see that coaching is attempting to progress, despite scepticism in the likely progress from Lyle (2002) and Jones (2007). It is clear to me that many of the aims of the Coaching Task Force document (DCMS, 2002), UK Action Plan for Coaching (SCUK, 2004) and the latest 3-7-11 document (SCUK, 2007); continue place emphasis on similar goals. For example, all three documents are of the opinion that greater quantity and better quality coaches are needed. This could infact raise the question that coaching has not developed at the rate necessary for professional status. This is an assertion held by Jones (2007) who points to the…
