ACS is an eight-week deep dive into the coaching mentality. It synthesises advancements in the field while empowering coaches to build resilience to handle the intense pressures of their career through the support and mentorship of peers who simply ‘get it’.

The magic of ACS is the cross-sporting-code format of the group, which is handpicked so strictly only one team is represented from each code. This creates the unique trusting environment needed to fast-track collaboration and peers. Facilitators survey the coaches' players to gather authentic feedback that is used to customise each coach's learning journey.
Coaches learn techniques to continue the practices of self-reflection and problem-solving for the rest of their lives. The benefits flow on to their players, their organisations and their loved ones. Conducted remotely via Microsoft Teams, the ACS fits into the schedules of sports' busiest professionals. There are also opportunities for members to meet face to face, health guidelines allowing, including at the annual Aleda Summit.

The Aleda Cycle

There are four parts to the work we do: research, collaboration, observation and coaching.

1 Research & Analyse

Our Learning Environment Survey is all about collecting measurable data on your learning environment, to understand it better and identify areas of growth. An expert Aleda consultant will work with you onsite to administer and analyse your results.

2 Collaborate & Learn

The Aleda Cycle focuses on collaborating and reflecting in a safe, familiar and welcoming environment – your own workplace. Our consultant will facilitate an open and collaborative session between peers, to help analyse feedback and make an informed decision about where to focus your energy moving forward.

Coaching, feedback and planning

3 OBSERVE

Through the observation process, you will implement everything you have decided upon in the Collaborate and Learn session. We’ll help you to identify focus areas and interventions that can positively impact your learning environment; testing, measuring and refining as we go to ensure success.

4 Coach to Action

Our coaching model is about walking shoulder to shoulder with you through the Aleda Cycle. You will analyse, deeply reflect, and enact plans specific to your site and role.

One Day Workshop

To co-create how your organisation can implement and execute the team values to the wider organisation with impact and consistency.

Two Day Workshop

Includes access to the Empowering Leader Survey which gathers honest anonymous feedback from the people you currently lead to encourage self-reflection.

Day 1: Connect the strengths and areas of opportunity for growth to your team values and co-create an actionable set of behaviours in a working document that supports a positive, high functioning environment.

Day 2: Delve into the outcome of Day 1 of the program to review a working values document for your organisation and co-create how your organisation can implement and execute the team values to the wider organisation with impact and consistency. This session will deep dive into the Empowering Leader Survey data to allow your leaders and aspiring leaders to reflect and engage in activities to acknowledge their individual strengths and opportunities for growth using the key Leadership Dimensions: Insight, Vision, Collaboration, Curiosity, Communication and Impact.

Meditation

At Aleda we consider the practice of meditation the greatest gift we can provide our wellbeing. Extensive research shows the two most effective strategies to care for our overall wellbeing and increase our levels of happiness and life satisfaction are regular exercise and a daily practice of meditation.

Recent advances in neuroscience have shown meditation builds our brain muscle, by positively rewiring our neural pathways to perform better under pressure, experience less stress and anxiety and be more alert, calm and focused.

Over 350 peer reviewed scientific studies have also revealed a daily practice of meditation can have the following benefits to our wellbeing:

  • Increase in self-awareness and positive emotions
  • Improved emotional regulation and self-control  
  • Improved memory and learning ability
  • Improved sleep quality
  • Increase in energy and vitality
  • Decrease in inflammation and improved immune function

Meditation is one component of Aleda’s wellbeing programs. We take joy in inspiring people to learn the art of meditation and experience the profound impact meditation can have on their lives and the lives of those around them.
