I feel lucky to have had Karl on my podcast and in this episode, we dig into a variety of themes related to peak performance. Although Karl works mostly in the arena of professional golf, he also brings his peak performance model to athletes in other sports and into the corporate world as well.
Karl firmly believes that good coaching or teaching is never telling people what they should do but instead to ask the right questions in order to unlock the potential held within. Karl involves his clients in the co-construction of their own learning ultimately helping them to unpack the answers themselves and it’s in the process of this unpacking that they better lead themselves toward mastery of their craft.
In this episode, There are so many parallels to great teaching in the world of education which we also discuss, such as the importance of building relationships, differentiated instruction, and finding every student’s entry point to learning.
You are sure to glean some great insight from this episode that can be applied in both your personal and professional life and if you are a golfer, you’ll find even more value in our discussion. Thanks for listening.
