Paradox, Pitfalls, & Parity: Where Have all the Women Coaches Gone? [5/4/2017]
Ladies,
Last week I had the opportunity to see Dr. Nicole M LaVoi, the University of Minnesota Tucler Center Co-Director, speak twice. One session was tips for positive engagement with sport parents (SO interesting!) and the other was titled" Beyond the Paradox for Women Coaches: High Five, Survive & Thrive. It reminded me about the lecture I went to see last fall at the U of M also given by Dr. LaVoi. I started typing up my notes for you from that lecture when I remembered (who am I kidding - I did not remember but I read it in my notes) that the lecture was going to be posted online.
Below is a link to her lecture titled: Paradox, Pitfalls, & Parity: Where Have all the Women Coaches Gone? It is a little lengthy - but SO worth the time.
Click HERE to access the lecture. Good luck with meets tonight and tomorrow!

In an effort to increase the number of females in the coaching profession and pipeline, the Tucker Center has created the #SheCanCoach project.
