This book focuses on leadership in sports coaching, exploring key concepts and principles underpinned by a presentation of new empirical research. Placing social identity theory at its centre - a theory not previously applied to sports coaching - this book provides students and researchers with a powerful tool for understanding the complex social dynamic that is the coaching process. Its chapters cover all the central aspects of sports coaching, including leadership style, measuring effectiveness, motivation, confidence and team self-esteem. Chapters explore different coaching environments to investigate the extent to which social identity impacts on coaching and leadership. A ground-breaking contribution to this field of research, this book demonstrates the significance of social identity theory in sport for athletes, coaches and leaders alike. Leadership in Sports Coaching: A social identity approach is an illuminating read for any student or researcher with an interest in coaching theory, coaching practice, sport psychology, sport leadership or sport management" -- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Introduction -- Coaching effectiveness and leadership: a theoretical perspective -- A social identity theory of leadership -- Developing a social identity measure for leadership in sport coaching -- The effects of social identity on coaching competence, sport motivation and sport -- Confidence -- Analysis of social identity on coach evaluations, sport motivation and sport confidence -- Across a large athlete sample -- Synthesizing the theoretical outcomes of investigating social identity -- Research and practical implications. 650 0 $a Coaching (Athletics) 650 0 $a Coaching (Athletics) $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Leadership. 650 0 $a Sports $x Sociological aspects. 650 0 $a Group identity. 650 0 $a Identity (Psychology) $x Social aspects. 700 1 $a O'Boyle, Ian, $e author. 700 1 $a Cassidy, Tony, $e author. 830 0 $a Routledge research in sports coaching. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180104061745.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BBB21454A80111E7B9D4614397128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
