Because our mission at CoachDeck is to improve the quality of volunteer-parent coaching, who better to weigh in on the role of parents as life coaches, than John Wooden?

“I think parenting and coaching or teaching are the same thing. And they are the two most important professions in the world. Parents are coaches – the first coaches a child has. Too many parents expect the coaches and teachers at school to do what they are not doing at home. The parents must set the foundation early. It is often too late by the time a child goes to school.”
