Due to the demand for customized and sport specific leadership development training for sport leaders, Sport Law will be offering two Virtual Sport Leaders Retreats this fall. Since 2017, dozens of sport leaders have taken this leadership training and have expressed their appreciation for the transformative impact it has had on them personally and professionally.

In the words of Jodie Bierko, National High Performance Skating Coach and Certified Integral Professional Coach, “the Sport Leaders Retreat had a transformative impact on me by providing a high trust environment for personal and professional growth while offering a unique setting to connect with other likeminded sport leaders across the country. This also allowed me to hit the reset button with a good reminder to slow down and utilize my strengths, and how to communicate effectively with a mindful, more wholehearted approach. It is a powerful and highly valuable sport leadership program.” 

Administrators Edition – October 7 – December 2, 2022

Coaches and Technical Leaders Edition – October 13 – December 15, 2022

Both will incorporate relevant teachings to expand participants’ understanding of leading and coaching in the 21st century. This virtual design will allow you to integrate the teachings in a more practical and pace-sensitive manner.

Leaders will:

• Increase self-awareness through the NOVA Profile Assessment Tool. Create a new way to be in relationship with yourself, your co-workers and staff and the people in your life.
• Identify a leadership topic that you want to explore more intentionally and formalize this through a coaching program, with metaphors to support your transformation
• Become deeply attuned and aligned to your personal values, purpose, and the work you do, to more effectively create and lead your teams. Build emotional intelligence and the capacity to lead with authenticity and heart.
• Participate in group discussions during our virtual leadership huddles and walk away with practical tips that you can practice in between sessions
• Work through ‘real life’ situations and strengthen your understanding of the NOVA Profile in dyad conversations
• Learn how to communicate in a manner that respects your preferences and that of others
• Learn how to cultivate high trust environments and to find creative ways to bring people together
• Discuss diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging in the context of coaching the 21st century athlete
• Identify and practice approaches to deal with conflict in a healthier and more inclusive manner

The Experience: We’re looking for motivated individuals committed to positive change through sport … people who are longing for a better way to lead … people who want to bring elevated levels of consciousness into their work … and people who are ready to challenge outdated mindsets. We need to create brave spaces to help sport thrive. And we need brave leaders to join us.
