A coach plans, schedules, motivates, guides and controls the individual or a team. He often set the expectations for the team. He uses his experience to improve the level of the team and all the individual players that comprises the team.

In my class, I always motivate them. When we discuss a case study in the class, I ask them to think, if you are the Project Manager for the scenario what you will do? Students will give their perspective as a Project Manager. It enhances their confidence level; Learn how to perform in a team in order to achieve the goal.

I share my experiences, throughout the knowledge areas, how to stick with plan, how to develop schedule, how to apply corrective measures if deviates from the plan, how to monitor & control it.  I often giving real time project examples and the explanation gives students better idea to link with real time with the explanation in the book. They visualize the various hats a Project Manager has to wear in real time projects.
