WINNING STRATEGIES

  1. How can we as coaches foster an environment that allows athletes to be competitive? The way you do anything is the way you do everything. How does gender affect coaching styles between the player and the coach?

  2. How can we keep women in sports regardless of gender dominance? Many young girls are pushed out of sport because they are the only female competing on that team. It is disheartening with the experience of stereotypes and lack of social compatibility at a young age. What’s the solution?

  3. How do we invite more people to invest in women’s sports? Many professional women’s leagues are overseas, which is a difficult adjustment for athletes relocating and adjusting to the new surrounding culture. How do we help these athletes in addition to providing opportunities to play at home?

WINNING STRATEGIES

  1.  Why are women not as intentional as men about networking? To build and advance your network requires intentional effort and setting time aside to focus on connection. How can we understand the underlying factors and change the narrative?

  2. To earn a leadership position as a woman takes respect and strategization, which can be mixed up with manipulation. How can women be more present in the moment? Can we ‘play the game’ without changing our values and beliefs?

  3. How can we get women to be more open to helping other women? With the gender paradigms and lack of opportunities that exist in today’s society, women often compete with each other rather than for each other. How do we change it?
