Example Of An Interview Of Bill Cole In A Major US Newspaper
With 25 years of coaching experience, Bill
Cole defines coaching as 'an action-oriented art where I collaborate
with the client and together we advance specifically where they
want to go.' Cole...believes that in order to be coached, 'the
motivation has to come from the person. They have to really want
it as opposed to my selling it to them. The client needs to find
a coach who has specific expertise and a deep knowledge of the
defined area so that there is a matching up of the client's need
with the coach's experience. I call this 'the wisdom factor',
because then the coach can navigate these waters astutely, since
he's either been there or has worked with a lot of clients in
that area. This approach is critical."
Bill Cole MS, MA, was quoted in the article "How Coaches Give
A Boost To Careers", by Evalee Harrison, Work Force Wellness columnist
for The San Francisco Examiner and Chronicle.
Bill Cole Interview - Sharks Look To Emulate Wings, Who Also
Struggled To Win Cup
On May 7, 2010 Bill Cole was interviewed by
the Detroit News about the San Jose Sharks NHL playoff in hockey.
Bill explains how athletes often do not realize they are resisting
their best performances, perhaps out of fear that their best will
not attain a goal, or out of fear of success itself. This can
be a subconscious withdrawal, where they hold themselves back
from achieving, by not giving themselves permission to win. Read
the complete
interview (opens in a new window).
Bill Cole Radio Interview
Listen to Bill Cole being interviewed on SIRIUS radio on the
Hardcore Sports Radio Channel from Toronto, Canada as he discusses
