The Tough Stuff: Seven Hard Truths About Being a Head Coach

As the speed of change in elite sports has increased, the support infrastructure around head coaches has not kept up.

This has left many coaches--supposedly experts in human performance--walking zombies who don’t sleep, don’t exercise, and don’t see their families.

To succeed in the modern sporting world, coaches must face some hard truths.

By grappling with these truths, which cut to the very core of who they are as human beings, head coaches can get out of their own way and achieve all-new levels of personal performance.

In The Tough Stuff you’ll learn:

• Just how much the emotional toll impacts your ability to coach

• How to become a high-performance knowledge worker

• Why communication mastery is key to unlocking your full potential

As well as sharing his own struggles as a head coach, Cody Royle enlists the help of some friends who are all too familiar with The Tough Stuff, such as Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn, Connacht Rugby head coach Andy Friend, TMU BOLD basketball head coach Carly Clarke, DC United head coach Ben Olsen, Toronto Raptors and Phoenix Suns head coach Jay Triano, and Colorado Avalanche head coach Tony Granato.
