Episode 16 – Team Culture & Values

Today we want to talk about building team culture and team values. As summer championships are right around the corner, coaches begin to think about the start of the next season. Part of that planning process is creating a team culture of success.

In this episode, we will talk about processes that can lead to a better team culture. Do team building activities and goal setting sessions set the tone for the season, or are their more effective ways to lead your athletes into learning the values and habits that lead to success? These are the questions we will discuss today.
