Course Overview
A 3D Coach is fundamentally sound, skilled at coaching the mind, and focused on capturing the heart. Explore coaching across three dimensions in an intentional effort to maximize athletic performance while aligning your goals with your purpose.
In this deep-dive into the 3D Framework, you’ll learn to maximize athletic performance through holistic development, aligning goals with a deeper sense of purpose. Beyond mere wins and losses, this program emphasizes cultivating a legacy of lasting significance, fostering personal and character growth in athletes to create a meaningful impact both on and off the field.
Course Components
- The 3D Framework: Teaches a comprehensive framework for immediate performance improvement and long-term significance in your coaching journey.
- Foundational Purpose Statement: Guides coaches in articulating a purpose-driven philosophy for their coaching, aligning their approach with their values.
- Practical Application: Equips coaches with tangible, real-world examples and actionable strategies that can be immediately integrated into their coaching strategy to make in impact.
- Ancillary Text: How To Be a Positive Leader: Small Actions, Big Impact is a book that “takes the perspective that small actions by leaders can and do have a big impact” while allowing “leaders to see the possibilities for expanded and improved human capacities enabled by small actions.”
All coaches should challenge their way of thinking in how they do things. Knowing a "framework" of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd dimension allows you to ask your "why" you are doing something before you implement it.
Excellent course with great content that forces you to really think through why you coach, facilitate a personal purpose statement, and choose strategies to implement. It is good to get the reminder that the picture for why we coach is much bigger than skills and strategy and that we as coaches must think through ways we can reach our athletes where they are at and really seek to reach not only their minds and bodies, but their souls.
I enjoyed the program. I had read Jeff's book previously. I have already started implementing some of the strategies and have seen a great deal of vhane already.
This course has been a great tool for me to see where I stand as a coach and activity director. It has shown me a lot of what I have been doing is good yet I can make adjustments to get better. I feel this will help me as a coach to other coaches through my position as activity director even more than it will help me as a coach of athletes. I feel it will allow me to get through to more people than just my team.
This course did a great job of making me evaluate my own coaching practices and reflect on what I can do better. It helped me understand what players and their parents think about some of the different coaching practices and what they want their son or daughter to gain from a sport and its coaches. This is a valuable tool in learning about the 2nd and 3rd Dimensions that really do need to be focused on much more if we are going to really develop student athletes and maximize their individual and team potential. I highly recommend this course!
Eye opening course for all of the "old school coaches" such as myself.
I really enjoyed taking the 3D course. I grew as a coach and as a person. The information is very easy to follow and easy to connect with. I really do feel after taking this course I will be a better coach in the future for my athletes.
Most impactful coaching course I have ever participated in.
The course was fantastic! It really helped me reflect on my current practices and helped me plan to grow as a coach of all 3 dimensions!
Some very good information that will hopefully make me a better coach
This has been an awesome course. I have coached and taught for 35 years and I wish I would have had this available to me when I started my professional career.
Great stuff! I learned a lot of techniques and strategies that I can take back to my programs!
Very valuable information for any coach who wants to fully engage athletes.
Completing the 3D Coaching Course has given me the opportunity to reflect on and examine my coaching style. This experience has provided me with the tools to move forward in a positive direction. I now realize how important it is to coach in the 2nd and 3rd dimensions.
This course really made me think and evaluate where I am and where I want to be as a coach.
This course gave excellent ideas of how to move in a positive direction in the 2nd and 3rd Dimensions. It gave real analogies of how athletes see things and it wasn't just geared to any specific audience. All teens seem to have the same tendencies making the videos relate-able to all situations we encounter no matter where you are in the country.
Love it
This course is excellent for coaches wanting to take their programs to the heart level of their athletes. In a day when so much of a young person's identity is tied to their achievements, this simple course reminds coaches to think about the purpose of their coaching and to develop young people, not just young athletes, that can transition from field to occupation with purpose and joy!
This course gave me a greater understanding of the concepts to needed to build a more complete student athlete. Developing the mind and heart of those I have an influence on will hopefully have a positive impact on the lives of those young men and women.
Very worthwhile coursework including new information as well as good reminders. I would highly recommend to any individual coach or for programs to complete together.
