1 - Building trust and recognizing inner drivers - the theoretical foundations of profiling³.

                 I quickly realized that it was helpful from a motivational point of view to
                 listen  carefully,  especially  to  the  mothers,  and  to  engage  with  the
                 stories they told me. Today, I say that these tennis students needed the
                 relationship-building to gain trust in me and become engaged with the
                 tennis  electio-  ns.  The  sensitive  attention  helped  them  to  chase  the
                 yellow felt ball with diligence and enthusiasm on the red clay.


                 With  the  men,  on  the  other  hand,  it  was  a  completely  different
                 story.  These  novice  tenis-  ners  wanted  above  all  to  go  to  their
                 physical limits in the exercises, they wanted to work up a sweat and
                 really  break  a  sweat.  Of  course,  no  lollipops  helped  here,  and
                 building up a relationship by listening carefully was usually a rather
                 unsuitable means of motivating the adult tennis fathers. But I still
                 had to win their trust - just by other means, such as convincing them
                 with my tennis skills.

                 And you can imagine that with the tennis stars I deal with these days as
                 a coach and trainer, again other motivators play a role.

                 So what I learned very early on - at the beginning, of course, on an
                 unconscious  level:  It  always  requires  specific  and  individual
                 attention to gain access to a person, to win his heart and to build a
                 relationship  based  on  trust.  It  made  a  difference  who  I  trained,
                 whether  the  children  or  the  adults,  whether  the  fathers  or  the
                 mothers. Or to put it in a nutshell: To build trusting relationships, it
                 is helpful to know what makes you tick and how you affect others,
                 and above all, what makes others tick. That's why it's right to have a
                 relationship that is focused on the individual.
