In sports, coach can rarely outperform those coached, yet in business coach will probably be an accomplished player. One of most successful coaches in National Basketball Association never played professional basketball. Is it possible to conceive of a successful sales manager who never was a salesperson? In sports, coaching is a full-time job supported in many cases with assistant coaches; in business coach has many diverse responsibilities. In gymnastics coach’s span of control is usually on-on-one. The number of “suits” on bench, during a college basketball game, often equals or outnumbers “uniforms” or actual players. Athletes can practice before game and take time-outs; in business clock is always running. Most athletic coaches see themselves as, first and foremost, teachers. Even though word "coach” has become a popular addition to most managers’ job descriptions, we doubt that many would also include teacher. So while playing field and conditions are different, we believe that there are some unique lessons to be learned from sports coaching and applied to corporate coaching.
