Beskrivelse
Women athletes of all ages have an incredible capacity to be dynamic leaders who can choose between taking a step back to see the big picture or leading with curiosity and creativity.
In Take Her Word for It: Sports Cultivate World-Class Leaders, Kathleen Ralls, PhD, looks at how lessons learned in sports provide women the essentials necessary to be effective team leaders. After spending almost two decades as a high school teacher and athletic coach, Ralls speaks to emerging and established professional women who aspire to examine leadership and personal and professional growth in a new way.
Through personal stories, research, and interviews with Olympic, collegiate, and other highly competitive athletes, Ralls raises questions about how women can work together to create space for those who feel like their unique, inclusive leadership is often overlooked. Those questions include:
Do you need permission to lead?How do sports encourage voice empowerment?What are the benefits of not always leading?Inspired by the women athletes she competed against, coached, and taught, author Kathleen Ralls' Take Her Word for It: Sports Cultivate World-Class Leaders gives readers the empowerment to love themselves and their unique voices; freeing them to use a variety of leadership styles.
