CMS: Soft skill, the hidden treasure - group management

QUESTIONS

• In your everyday work, what does good group management mean?
• How can you bring out the potential of each player and subsequently put that to good use in the team?
• What essential feature does a trainer require and what does s/he look for in his/her players?
• How do you start again after a victory and how do you deal with the stress after a defeat?

Interviewed by Stefano Stara (CMS Business Development and Services Manager), Stefano Micoli takes us on a journey in search of one of the most important soft skills: the ability to manage a group.

Who better than a winning trainer can help us understand how to manage a group, how to be a leader through the inevitable ups and downs of a long sports season? Because, to quote a passage from the interview, “victories and defeats can be deceptive, and are skilled impostors”.
