About this listen

Player-Coach is your playbook for successfully navigating the transition from workplace team member to manager.

There are workplace teams, and there are managers. But what about the role that straddles both worlds? Just as some athletes stay in the game and also coach their team, the business player-coach is a doer and a leader at the same time.

Shifting from purely doing to leading others can be a challenging transition — but with the right knowledge and skills, anyone can thrive in this role. In Player-Coach, HR experts and leadership development experts Val Markos and Tammy Martin provide invaluable advice for team members navigating this shift into management.

Armed with a four-part leadership model and key concepts, you will be empowered to become an effective — even great — leader. Filled with real-life experiences, stories, and tips on developing the critical skills every player-coach needs to be successful, Player-Coach is your how-to guide to moving from the team bench to the team coach.

Profile Image for Robert Nicholson

Too generic, not helpful

Full of cliches. The advice is way too generic and barely usable. The book is based on anecdotal experiences, which are unlikely to be reproduced/applied to a real-life situation.

The first quarter of the book is basically an introduction. This is a shame because the total duration is fairly short.

No problems with narration.
