**Important Update*** The Date for This Program has been changed to Tuesday, April 26. Calling All Athletic Coaches! Dr. Matthew Raidbard, author of "Lead Like a Pro" to Discuss Successful Coaching and Leadership Styles
The Springfield Free Public Library is delighted to welcome author Matthew Raidbard for a presentation about the leadership styles and behaviors that lead to successful coaching for athletes of any age, to take place via zoom at 7:00 PM on Tuesday, April 26
In his recently published book, Lead Like a Pro, Dr. Raidbard draws on over a decade spent as a college basketball coach and senior level athletics administrator, as well as on his own original research into what leadership styles and behaviors help athletic coaches be successful. This practical, yet informative book provides coaches with the resources to transform their leadership practice and reach their full potential. Dr. Raidbard's current position is as the Executive Senior Associate Athletic Director for Administration, Compliance, and Student-Athlete Success at the University of Hartford.
Athletic coaches today are being asked to take on more responsibilities outside of traditional X’s & O’s, but don’t necessarily have the leadership tools to help them take on this outsized challenge. Whether you are a volunteer coaching your child’s team, a part-time high school coach who’s also a teacher, or a full-time college or professional coach, this book will teach you new ways to enhance your leadership style and become a better coach for your athletes and team.
This program is free and open to all members of the general public and preregistration is not required. The zoom link for this program is https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87902775949?pwd=TFF2UnlUQWdoNEtzUkg2VDExd0UxQT09
