“Do, Share, Be” Leadership and Character Development Workshop
The “Do, Share, Be” Leadership and Character Development Workshop” is a 3-4 hour immersive experience designed to help high school athletes become confident, resilient leaders who positively impact their team’s performance.
With over 20 years of experience, including leading leadership development at IMG Academy and working with elite organizations like the Chicago Bulls, Green Bay Packers, and Dallas Cowboys, I’ve crafted this workshop to equip athletes with the tools they need to lead under pressure, communicate effectively, and build trust with their teammates. I’ve had the privilege of working with high school and college athletes nationwide, helping them develop the mental toughness and leadership qualities necessary to excel both on and off the field. My hands-on approach ensures that athletes leave with real, actionable strategies they can apply immediately.
This program is ideal for an entire athletic department but is also good for individual teams. It fosters a unified culture of leadership, accountability, and high performance across all sports. By focusing on leadership at every level, we create an environment where athletes support and push each other to be their best.
Key Takeaways:
DO: Know Yourself, Do the Work – Develop self-awareness, challenge limiting beliefs, and build the confidence needed to become a stronger leader.
SHARE: Master Communication, Share Your Voice – Understand how to communicate effectively—whether verbal, physical, or digital—and how trust and influence are built through authentic relationships.
BE: Become a Leader, Set the Standard – Lead by example, build lasting relationships based on trust, and set the standard for your team’s success.
This workshop is packed with interactive activities, team-building exercises, and time-tested strategies to equip your student-athletes with the skills to lead confidently and resiliently. Each student will also receive a workbook to help reinforce the lessons and strategies covered during the session, providing a lasting resource they can refer to as they continue their leadership journey.
