THE AMAZING CULTURE
So often in sports, businesses, organizations, media, and even family life, there is an “every man for himself” attitude that breeds isolation, loneliness, and toxicity. Our world is in desperate need of change.
Our goal is to spark change by creating an amazing culture that focuses on building a love-based environment. The Amazing culture supports every individual through encouragement, accountability, and positive actions!
“ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WITH YOUR ACTIONS AND WORDS, ALSO HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE WHEN THEY ARE NOT BEING THE AMAZING PERSON THEY ARE MEANT TO BE” - JUSTIN FATICA
The 8 Principles
One way that this AMAZING culture is being established is through Encouragement Coaching and the 8 Principles that illustrate the coaching style. Everyone is a coach in some way, and everyone needs an Encouragement Coach! Learn More Here.
A COACH’S IMPACT
Keysonne’s Story
Keysonne is a young boy from Syracuse, NY who plays on an AAU team coached by an Encouragement Coach. His life is being transformed through this Amazing culture, and through having an Encouragement Coach in his life.
There are thousands of youth like Keysonne who are immersed in a culture that will lead them to a life of destruction and loneliness. Encouragement Coaching is a part of the solution to these problems youth are facing in our society today.
