GO BEYOND THE Xs & Os

I’M NICOLE NELSON.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE CONSULTANT
& CRUCIAL COMPETENCIES COACH

With 20 years of coaching experience in Division I Athletics, I‘m instinctually driven to help individuals and teams improve competitive performance, exceed perceived limitations, embody their true potential, and positively impact others while doing so –

THAT‘S MY PASSION.

Authentic leadership starts with self-awareness.

As leaders we all have blind spots and they generally don’t have anything to do with the Xs an Os. As a High-Performance Consultant, I specialize in empowering you and your team to excel under pressure in the competitive sports environment by strengthening your self-awareness and personal development toolkit.

I’ve created a powerful coaching and training tool that underlies every consultation, training program, academic course, and presentation I create. It’s called –

CRUCIAL COMPETENCIES™

Through my Crucial Competencies toolkit, you will:

  • Elevate your personal development process
  • Embody your full potential, personally and professionally
  • Improve the performance of your self, players, and teams
  • Become proficient in your relationship with self and others

It’s my innovative approach to competitive athletics that results in your comprehensive embodiment of –

FIERCE PRESENCE & RESOLUTE FOCUS

You’ve excelled at the physical, technical, and tactical aspects of sport – you know that it requires self-motivated commitment and dedication. It’s time to apply your innate perseverance and unrelenting tenacity to your personal development.

LET’S GO BEYOND THE Xs & Os.

WHY PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT?

1: SELF-AWARENESS CREATES NEW PATHWAYS TO
PERPETUAL SELF-IMPROVEMENT.
Without self-awareness, you will continue to unknowingly recreate
the same problems and challenges for yourself over and over.

 
2: TRUST IS THE FOUNDATION OF COHESIVE TEAMS.
When leaders, coaches, players, and team members are supported
in strengthening personal development skills, then vulnerability-
based trust flourishes and entrenched issues can come to light.

 
3: STRONG BOUNDARIES, INTEGRITY, & EXPERT
LEADERSHIP ARE IMPERATIVE IN
HIGH-PERFORMANCE ENVIRONMENTS.
It is no longer beneficial, nor conducive to the ever-advancing proficiency of
competitive athletics, to solely emphasize the technical and tactical aspects of
sport. It’s beyond time to apply the power of our minds and consciousness.
