"My coaching style is all about helping players find growth through failure. I'm a very positive, upbeat coach who holds players accountable and helps them build up confidence in their skills and in themselves by helping them set goals and proving that if they put in the work, they can grow and succeed." A former NAIA softball player, Megan Van Allen brings her infectious, can-do attitude to everything she does, whether on the turf with athletes or behind the scenes as an HR generalist, supporting various staff support functions. We are further excited to celebrate her impending graduation from Western Governors University - way to go, Megan!

It’s amazing where you can get motivation and ideas from. A tweet took me to the New York Times bestseller list. A spare 5 minutes took me into a deep dive of their 10 bestsellers every year. A random, that looks interesting took me to a book called, “An immense world” by Ed Yong. All of that led to me writing this article for BA Coaches. Have a read if you like sport, teams or are a parent trying to help your child learn something! By recognizing and respecting the unique perceptual and cognitive worlds of players, a coach can create personalized and emotionally engaging training programs https://lnkd.in/gsADG6Pb

It’s more than the plays. Coaching is about people
Founder, Performance Advisory Group | Supporting executives, coaches, and athletes in professional sports
"We aren't coaching x's and o's, we are coaching people... I always tell coaches that you put up these x's on the board, and if x1 hates x2 and if x3 doesn't know how to communicate with x4, then your going to stink." — Former Duke Men’s Basketball Coach Mike Krzyzewski on how strategic plans are only as good as the relationships between those who execute it.

This is one of those Lessons that applies as much to club Board volunteers as it does to Senior Managers. To paraphrase Alfie Kohn, if you want quality organization, you do things with not to your colleagues. For those of you who have never read anything by Alfie Kohn, I would strongly suggest his book, "Punished by Rewards." https://lnkd.in/efJf6PBZ #leadership #mcma #ggapartners #nca #cmaa #clubmanagement #management
GGA Partners™ Colin Burns shares a great lesson learned about collaborative leadership which is a fancy way to say do with, not to.

Does this describe you? Well…. If it does, you aren’t alone. It describes 90% of the working force in this country. Lots of people talk about wanting to get out if the “rat race.” But free ever really do, either because 1: they don’t know how and just wish someone would give them a shot. 2: they just lack the will and discipline to do it. If you are # 1, we should talk. I’m opening up 3 more personal coaching slots for Q4 If you are #2, you should probably stay where you are. 🙂

This is one of the most challenging Dale Carnegie principles... And how easy is it to slide a complaint into a conversation? AND how much more powerful could our presence be, how much more influence might we have if we resisted the urge? #DaleCarnegie #CharlotteNC #PowerfulPresence #LeadWithInfluence

The keys to being an Olympian in life and business are to have a strategic coaching team, the right investment of resources towards the specific, typically unobtainable goal, and practicing the “right” skills. One of the key life skills is confidence. However, we often don’t recognize it as it first comes in the form of courage. Babe Ruth had to get up to the plate before he was known as “Babe Ruth”. During his career, he was known as the strike-out king as well as the home run king. What are you willing to “strike out” on to learn how to hit the home run? Reframe the word “fail”.
