Many adults cite coaches as the adult they remember most from their schooling experience - and that is not always a result of positive interactions. In education, we know the influence and impact coaches have, but there is little, if anything, done to help our coaches grow in any way outside of Xs and Os. Also, there is almost nothing connecting personality archetypes, and the Enneagram in particular, to education. As avid users of Enneagram in our Executive Coaching roles we have seen the profound impact it can have on positively impacting leadership, relationships, and the ability to elicit peak performance. In attempt to address both issues, Cracking the Coaching Code was created. The book is designed to help everybody increase their self-awareness and provide concrete and tangible tools to better support their athletes and to create more productive relationships.

PJ Caposey are three public school educators who have served as teachers, school administrators, and superintendents with nearly a century of service combined. Together with speaking, consulting, coaching, and writing, these three educators have thousands of hours of observation, co-teaching, and teaching as their foundation for the call to action in this book. Michael Lubelfeld, Nick Polyak, and PJ Caposey are authors, presenters, superintendents, and friends. They are accomplished leaders who, like us all, are unfinished works in progress.
