McIntosh Memorial Library to host a Leadership Workshop for Coaches

Oct 1, 2024

VIROQUA, Wis. — Coaches and sports enthusiasts are invited to a transformative virtual workshop with Dr. Matthew Raidbard, “Learn to Lead Like a Pro.” The program will be offered on Monday, October 21, at 5:30 p.m., virtually via Zoom.

Dr. Raidbard brings 18 years of experience as a men’s college basketball coach and a senior-level college athletics administrator. His passion for leadership in sports led him to pursue a Doctorate in Educational Leadership, during which he conducted original research on athletic coach leadership practices. His findings revealed that many coaches lack the tools and resources for critical leadership roles, inspiring him to write his new book, “Lead Like A Pro: Effective Leadership Styles for Athletic Coaches.”

In this engaging workshop, Dr. Raidbard will emphasize the importance of coaches viewing themselves as leaders and making intentional choices in their leadership styles.
Participants will learn how to align their leadership practices with their personal values and beliefs and understand the profound impact their choices can have on their athletes, both positively and negatively.

Registration for the workshop is required so a Zoom link can be shared. To register, visit www.mcintoshmemoriallibrary.org. The form is under Adult Programs.
