COACHING SKILLS WHERE YOU DON’T EXPECT THEM

Drills for Skills has been the project that we have been running at ACMC for two years. As a result, we now have two dozen drills that you can use to learn the coaching skills and sub-skills. They are also very useful for making the MCF Chapters more exciting. While the Drills began as an experiment, they have turned out to achieve several things simultaneously.

One obvious objective was to give the teams a project to work on that would test their ability to work together and to learn to use the coaching skills as they make decisions and coordinating their activities. At the same time, it has given the group and team coaches the challenge of coaching and leading the teams— a challenge to their group and team coaching skills.
