Methods and tools: Rotter’s Internal-External Locus of Control Scale in translation of H. Olearnika (Ł. Drwal 1995), Generalised Self-Efficacy Scale, GSES - R. Schwarzer, M. Jerusalem and Z. Juczyński (Z. Juczyński 2001) as well as a Polish version of Leadership Scale for Sports LSS – a questionnaire for examining coach-ing behavior) – by Zuzanna Wałach-Biśta (Wałach-Biśta 2014). Additionally, there were age, seniority and sport class certificates provided. Results: statistical calculations indicate diversity of female-competitors and male-competitors in the analysed parametres and 5 subscales of the SPS questionnaire. Conclusion/ summary: results of the analysis of rates of correlation indicate need for additional training for coaches in the field of selected soft skills (e.g. communicative). Cel: uzyskanie opinii sportowców o rzeczywistych i preferowanych zachowaniach przywódczych trenerów oraz określenie ich współzależności z wybranymi cechami osobowości. Materiał: 140 zawodników uprawiających wyczynowy sport: 54 kobiety i 86 mężczyzn. Projekt badawczy zrealizowano w 2014 roku. Metody i narzędzia: Skala I-E (poczucie umiejscowienia kontroli) J.B Rottera w przekładzie H. Olearnika (Ł. Drwal 1995), Skala Uogólnionej Własnej Skuteczności (GSES) R. Schwarzera, M.

Dodatkowo sporządzono metryczkę wieku, stażu i posiadanej klasy sportowej. Wyniki: obliczenia statystyczne ujawniły zróżnicowanie respondentów w analizowanych parametrach i 5 podskalach kwestionariusza SPS. Podsumowanie: wyniki analizy współczynników korelacji wskazują na potrzebę dokształcania trenerów w zakresie wybranych kompetencji miękkich (np. komunikacyjnych).
