Show Notes
Five years ago, Shea Ralph walked in as head coach of Vanderbilt’s women’s basketball team and inherited a broken program. There wasn’t much trust or talent left.
But now, Vandy is flying as a #2 seed in this year’s NCAA tournament, and Shea has just been named National Coach of the Year.
Go behind the scenes of their turnaround, and see how Shea’s unique story and perspective helped drive it – including how she motivates her team to get good results without letting those results define who they are.
You’ll also learn:
- Why she calls herself “the weather” (and what it means for how you show up today)
- The importance of learning how to lose
- How she finally got her team to own their core values
- Why care comes first, no matter what leadership role you’re in
