Аннотация:
В данной статье рассмотрены разные стороны возникновения профессионального выгорания тренеров в спорте, что может отрицательно сказываться на эффективности их деятельности, а также даны результаты исследования факторов, влияющих на возникновение и уровень выгорания тренеров. Спортивные тренеры входят в сферу профессий помощи (система человек- человек), жизнедеятельность которых осуществляется в среде, связанной с дополнительными стрессорами, такими, как высокий прессинг для победы и выполнение роли тренера; административное и родительское вмешательство (безразличие); дисциплинарные проблемы; различные типы людей, с которыми тренер имеет дело; разнообразие ролей, которые они выполняют. Вышеперечисленные и другие профессионально-значимые составляющие деятельности в значительной мере обусловливают преждевременное развитие профессионального выгорания тренеров. Оно может проявляться на разных уровнях организации личности и при ее разных поведенческих проявлениях. Полученные результаты по изучению качеств личности, влияющих на выгорание, дают возможность улучшить систему ранней диагностики и отбора кадров в педагогические профессии, в частности тренера в спорте, что объясняет их практическую ценность.
