Goncalo Marques: Portugese podcaster with MSc in Clinical Psychology shares key lessons

Goncalo Marques, from Lisbon, Portugal, shares his incredible insights learned through his clinical psychology and sports psychology background.  Marques, a young man who will be working with club teams in the Portugal soccer world as a sports psychologist, believes that coaches must not paint the full picture for their athletes, but should instead provide a palette upon which the players can paint their own masterpiece.  He argues that authoritarian coaches only harm the learning process.  Coaches must adjust their vision and be more collaborative, more loving, more flexible and more validating if they wish to truly teach excellence.
