Has anyone else found that they get way more anxious about (managing, coaching, leading people) that they are coaching than they ever did as a participant?
Its the simple fear of being not in control. It applies to all "team" or "group" activities with a valuable outcome. When you are a participant, you have an assignment to take care of. When you are the "coach" you have to rely on everyone to perform their assignment and you have no control over it at that point. That's where a good coach or leader separates himself from a poor one. You have to trust and have confidence that you have prepared your team to do their assignments. If they fail, you learn from it and head out to the next "game" with a little bit better plan.
