Synopsis of the Program:

 

"Professional swimming coaches are the leaders in creating the best sport in the world."
 

How do you lead yourself? Do your ways of being empower you to be your best self in the world? 
How would your teams, colleagues, family, and friends describe their experiences, trust, and relationships with you? Are you truly showing up authentic and whole for those you're leading? Do you have this authentic relationship to yourself?
 

If people know better, they do better. It sounds simple, yet we know the human condition is wrought with habitual patterns and subconscious mental activity that stifles awareness and presence. While often misunderstood, you do have a choice in your way of being in the world. You first must cultivate a deeper relationship to your authentic self by becoming emotionally, mentally and energetically self-aware. When you do this you develop a mindful approach and empower yourself to consciously choose how to respond, not react, to everyday experiences that occur in work and life.
 

Human well-being is four pronged — mental, emotional, spiritual, physical — and only once we care for all parts of ourselves can we show up whole in our work, relationships and families. Through this workshop, you will learn tools to become more connected, mindful leaders of your own lives and will be empowered to lead yourself and others in more authentic, human, inspiring ways.

Testimonial from last years LeadHership Academy

"Since 1993, I have been a coach with USA swimming. I was 20 years old when I started coaching in Homewood, IL, and a couple of years into it I had a great mentor, Al Ledgin, who encouraged me to join ASCA. With his support, I completed the 5 ASCA levels and reached level 3 as a young coach. I have always coached part time because I also have been a teacher and professor for 26 years. I am a lifetime ASCA member because I believe I will coach until I cannot walk on deck anymore. 

 

This past weekend, I participated in the ASCA LeadHERship Academy. Unquestionably, it was the most outstanding short-term professional development workshop I have ever participated in, and I have attended and provided many of these as an educator. Professional development is actually one of my areas of expertise as a teacher-educator and researcher. I especially valued the focus on leadership for women, and I felt incredibly empowered to start working on my professional career goals. Susan “Teeter” was a master organizer, choosing just the right mix of women to share their stories and advice with us in different ways...

  

... It is crucial to offer events like this to women coaches of all ages to continue to improve the quality and effectiveness of USA swimming." - ASCA Lifetime Member
