In the new collegiate environment your coaches are being tasked with duties they are either resisting or ill-prepared to handle. Providing them with consistent professional development is beneficial to athletic directors in three ways:
STAFF RETENTION Coaches don't always leave because of money. Demonstrate that you care about their overall growth and development STUDENT-ATHLETE EXPERIENCE Improved coaching will enrich the quality of experience for your students FISCAL IMPACT By investing in your human capital on a regular basis you will save your department a significant amount of money when you keep small issues from morphing into large crises |
Having Helen work with all of our coaches was really important to me because one thing we want to be about is enabling growth. Helen worked with me to develop a plan that would foster the growth of our coaches. Partnering with Helen was easy because as a former coach she understands what a coach's daily life is like and she will tailor a program to fit your culture and environment.
