This workshop will look at the fundamental coaching skill of observation. It will examine the role and ways in which observation can be used in the learning cycle of performance development. We will look at observational models and levels, selective attention, and the observational behaviours of effective coaches as defined by recent academic research. The use of technology and its role in supporting analysis and feedback will also be explored.
