Meeting Pattern

Huddle Discussions {8:00 - 9:00 p.m.}

• November 12, 18 & 25
• December 2, 9 & 16

These discussions will occur via Blackboard using a video conferencing software called Collaborate. You should have a camera and headphones so we can all see and hear one another. All discussions will be recorded.

• To find the recording you need to open the Huddle. In the top left-hand corner of the screen, you will see a menu bar. Open that and you will see Recordings. Click on Recordings and you will be able to retrieve the session you want to view.

Description

“Learn how to achieve more through character development with lessons including: How to separate the person from the player; How to distinguish the two types of character; How to overcome fear of failure; plus, many more!

Full of real-life examples and time-tested advice from some of the winningest coaches in sports history, as well as a number of easy-to-follow exercises that will help you better understand what will drive winning for yourself and your team.”

Each part is an independent course; therefore, does not need to be taken in sequential order.
