Why do I need behavioral profiling to help those I'm consulting with?

It's now widely accepted that physical training will only get you so far in sport. Truly exceptional coaches and athletes realize that to achieve consistently great performance they must also focus on the mental aspect of sport. The key to this is self-awareness.

Self-awareness is all about each athlete and coach recognizing and understanding their unique personality, behaviors, strengths, weaknesses, motivators and beliefs, and how these help to create one's experiences in life.

Through understanding these aspects of themselves, coaches and athletes can adapt their training or coaching style, their communication style, training environments and other behaviors in ways that will help them make significant improvements in their performance and realize their true potential.

Self-awareness is achieved through behavioral profiling. Athlete Assessments was founded because of our deep appreciation for the importance of profiling in sports. Four-time Olympian and multi-medal winning athlete Bo Hanson has developed Athlete Assessments' sports specific behavioral profiles (AthleteDISC for athletes and CoachDISC for coaches). These one-of-a-kind profiling tools are based on a proven methodology and many years of research.

As a performance consultant you have the opportunity to share this unique profiling product with your clients. We promise you will be impressed with the results - Athlete Assessments' athlete and coach profiles are backed by a 100% money back satisfaction guarantee.

How does the process work?

Our AthleteDISC and CoachDISC behavioral profiling products are quick, simple and convenient to use. Everything is done online and backed by advanced technology. Results are compiled automatically, and presented in comprehensive personalized reports giving in depth analysis, in an easy to understand format.

Athlete Assessments has established a convenient system for performance consultants and sport psychologists to use, so you can share the AthleteDISC and/or CoachDISC products with your clients, and manage the resulting reports.

Organizing and managing your client assessments is all done online with an easy to use automated system. The system offers a number of functions and resources for analyzing, comparing and combining the results. This is particularly useful for teams or groups.

Managing multiple teams or groups of clients is easy.

• You have 'master level' account access that gives you access to each individual client results.
• You can create 'sub level' accounts that gives others access to groups of individual results. For example, if you were working with a head coach and their team, you can provide the coach with a sub account to access only their athletes' results.
• You can group any number of teams into 'sub level' accounts for managing multiple clients through your own 'master level' account.
• You can control access to all account levels and amongst groups or individuals as appropriate.
• You can check whether surveys have been completed, and send automated reminder emails to individuals if required.
• Once surveys are completed you have access to the personalized reports through your account.
• For teams and groups, the profiling product offers a range of useful features that allow you to analyze team dynamics and assess different team combinations.

There are two options you can choose for how you'd like to use the products. You can either:

1. Contact us for a tailored solution to your needs as we have a special program for sports performance consultants. Your account and client reports and logins can be branded with your own logo, you're provided full training and access to additional resources and reference materials to support your work with your clients. You can also act as a reseller and give clients access to purchasing the profiles themselves, including through your own website if you wish. This can be established very quickly and incorporated within your client services.

Each individual's report is a comprehensive analysis of their personality and behavior as an athlete or as a coach. It contains all the information they need to become self-aware in their coaching, training or competition.

These reports contain more insight and analysis about each individual's behavior and personality than you may otherwise be able to glean in the time you have consulting with them.

This information can be applied straightaway into coaching, training and competition. As a performance consultant, you can also use the findings to develop a much greater understanding of your client/s, and therefore provide a more effective service for them.

What do other performance consultants have to say about Athlete Assessments?

Name: Pamela Brooks, USA
Business: www.ccsuccess.com

What they have to say:

I have been working with both athletes and coaches for the past 7 years to help them find ways to increase self-awareness, reduce limiting behaviors, increase performance, and strengthen team unity and success. I help individual athletes understand their best performance zone, so they know how to reach it more consistently, and how to avoid triggers that disengage them from their optimal performance zone. I work with coaches to help them understand how to connect and get the most out of their athletes. I can help them understand how even practice plans can affect an athlete's ability to learn new things and overcome obstacles to performance.

Pamela's personal comments:

The AthleteDISC is one of the most powerful athletic reports I have seen on the market. What makes this report so powerful is that it doesn't take a four year degree to understand it or to put the information to work right away. It can be used by coaches working with youth sports all the way up through colleges and professional teams. It is easy to understand, provides personal insight that can be put to use immediately. It can be used by a coach at any level to work with their athletes to keep them more engaged and help understand team dynamics better. The power of DISC has been used in Corporate America for years, and while corporate America has always learned from sport analogies, athletics could learn a lot about performance and job alignment from the corporate sector.

Bo Hanson has done a fantastic job of capturing the power of DISC and creating applications for it into Sport. I think every little league sport organization and college in America should be using this assessment to help train their coaches and on how to bring out the best in their athletes and to help improve the self-awareness of their athletes that will lead to a more positive sporting experience and performance.

Name: Selina Scoble, Australia
Business: Champions Toolbox

What they have to say:

With our business Champions Toolbox, we believe that Champions are built, not born.  It's crucial that before we coach athletes, coaches, or teams to become Champions, that we identify their individual behavioural styles.  Many athletes and coaches often spend most of their time out on the court/field working on their skills and techniques, or in the gym working on getting stronger, fitter and faster.   Many don't take the time out to work on themselves, on their mindset, identifying what influences their behaviours, or improving their communication with team members, all of which dramatically influence performance. The Athlete & Coach Assessments are perfect tools for us to help build Champions in sport.

Selina's personal comments:

As an Olympian I wish I had this tool when I was training and competing!  When I first did the assessment I had a massive 'A-HAAA' moment!  When you understand yourself and others in terms of individual strengths and weakness, motivation, why people behave certain ways in different situations, why people don't get along with certain people, and how to better communicate with different styles of people, you can dramatically improve your performance.  As they say - people are different, but they're predictably different.  Self-awareness is so powerful and I don't think there's enough done with athletes and teams.  The Athlete & Coach Assessments will help any athlete or team go to the next level.  This is ground breaking stuff, the way of the future for any athlete, coach or team!

What they have to say:

In working with high level racing drivers from my UK base, I need a range of tools to assess and measure all my clients. When appropriate to the driver, Athlete Assessments allows me to get a better understanding of how to communicate with and coach them so they take the best action for their improvement. After all, it's not about what I say, it's about what my clients do.

Mike's personal comments:

The service, support and system behind Athlete Assessments are awesome. The best feature is the fact that my clients get their own secure login to their own data and can forward the test onto other people within their team that can validate the measure as an 'observer'. Nice one!

. please Contact Athlete Assessments and we will be happy to discuss your particular requirements and offer you our excellent value volume discounts.
