Leading with 'why' enhances engagement and understanding among athletes. Technology is a part of athletes' lives; coaches must adapt to it. Creating tech-free spaces fosters genuine connections among team members. Co-creation empowers athletes and enhances team culture. Affirmation is more impactful than generic praise in building confidence. Modeling vulnerability as a coach encourages accountability among athletes. Teaching accountability requires practice in low-stakes environments. Conversations about mental health and technology are essential for today's athletes. The power of words can significantly impact an athlete's self-perception and confidence.
