Ask dentists what are the 5 most important things they should be learning, and you will find those being taught in dental school. Dentists are given the most important skills to succeed in that role. Ask coaches what are the 5 most important things they should be learning and then audit a coaching education course. Are we actually teaching our coaches what matters most for their role?
