Sports Wisdom’s ‘Secrets of Winning Coaches Revealed’ is a ‘must read’ for all budding sports people, whether a parent, a promising athlete or someone who has an interest in coaching or is already a ‘revered’ coach. In-depth interviews with a variety of great Australian coaches across a variety of sports, expresses a launching pad for future Australasian success in international sport. Every college, university and library across Australia should have a copy available so that younger generations have the opportunity to learn from this great resource. DAVID SIRL New Zealand Athletic International Representative I thoroughly enjoyed reading ‘Secrets of Winning Coaches Revealed.’ It is an inspiring book that should be read by all serious coaches. All top athletes in any sport must have the passion, the drive and the ambition to try and make their dream a reality but to do this they must link up with a knowledgeable coach who shares this ambition and passion for the sport. As a retired school principal and as a coach at all levels for many years, I would like to recommend this book as a MUST for coaches of any sport. ARCH JELLEY Coach of Olympic Gold Medalist, John Walker I am a strong believer that you never stop learning. Trying to tap into successful coaches and individuals is hard unless you are involved in their circles. To be able to read and learn from what has helped these coaches to be successful in their chosen sporting !elds is a real bene!t. Coaching and people management methods are continually changing and reading this book has been a great way of trying to help my players deal with the same challenges. I would de!nitely recommend this book to any person interested in how to improve and change their philosophy on life, sports and every day struggles. It would not only be a valuable resource to any coach involved in any sport but also to anybody to help with their endeavours in life. GRAEME OSBORNE District Vice President United MineWorker’s South Western Districts 4 | Secrets of Winning Coaches Revealed www.sportswisdom.com.au ‘Secrets of Winning Coaches Revealed’ has reinforced my coaching beliefs and the approach I take to coaching teams.

  • Thesis Amended to Examiners Comments
    Organizational Culture and Identity: A Case Study from the Australian Football League Gervase A. Haimes A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy VICTORIA UNIVERISTY School of Human Movement, Recreation and Performance Faculty of Arts, Education and Human Development August 2006 ABSTRACT This thesis comprises research that was undertaken between January 2000 and December 2004 into the organizational culture and identity of Fremantle Football Club, a professional sporting organization that competes in an elite national football competition, the Australian Football League. The thesis began with a review of the contemporary literature on the principal topic, organizational culture and identity. The literature was subsequently used to frame and explain the approach taken in the research, which was to explore culture and identity as distinguishable, inter-dependent concepts integral to the functioning of sports organizations. The justification for the need to explore their impact in professional sporting organizations, because of a gap in our knowledge, was also provided. The research was conducted as a single qualitative case study that enabled an in-depth investigation into how Fremantle Football Club’s culture and identity were formed and how they influenced its structure, strategy, behaviour and performance. Significantly, the research covered the entire history of the club since its inception in 1994, revealing three distinct periods in which culture and identity were strongly influenced by the values and beliefs of the club’s leaders, particularly the CEOs, as well as board members, senior management and coaches. The first period comprised a time of self-absorption with an inappropriate culture that saw it in frequent conflict with external stakeholders as on-field success eluded it.
