Abstract
This study aimed at the identification of the factors derived from the leadership style of soccer coaches in the Brazilian National Championship/2005. It was used a questionnaire to characterize the sample and the Revised Leadership Scale for Sport, ideal profile version, as instruments for data collection. Twenty top-level soccer coaches of the Brazilian National Championship participated in the research. They presented an average age of 50 years (6.92) and a direct involvement with soccer coaching of 15.10 years (8.42). The internal consistency of the leadership scale was =0.86. The results showed that the coaches interviewed consider autocracy and training-instruction aspects as the main components of the profile leadership. Data also showed that the situational, positive feedbacks and social support aspects are important in the process of leadership. Concluding, the leadership profile to soccer coaches combines autocratic decision style and the interaction style leaned to technical, tactical and motivational performance of the team.Downloads
