学生运动员领导力训练

"As a captain of state championship football team, 摔跤队的州赛跑运动员, 学生会主席, the SALT group was a great place for me to reflect on my leadership skills and how I can further advance my team's accomplishments. Throughout my two years in the SALT program, I started to really focus on myself and how I handled situations. If I was not playing to my full potential and giving it my all each and every day, my teammates would believe that is acceptable. I began to critique myself more than others because I know as the leader if I set the standard of work, 其他人都会跟着. It was always good to receive inputs from athletes on other teams and understand how they reached success. People rarely talk to other sports teams about how they got to where they are, so the SALT group really helped in that sense too."

"I first came into contact with the Student Athlete 领导团队 my sophomore year when a senior at the time, 邀请我参加一个带队友的会议. I couldn’t form an opinion after just one meeting, but luckily I was nominated by one of my coaches to attend the meetings my junior and senior year. 就像几年前一样, as the season got underway independent of what sport I was playing, 我经常面临来自团队的麻烦. Ranging from poor performances to simple lack of effort, I had exhausted all avenues of solutions to motivate my teammates. The SALT group comforted me that I was not alone in my troubles and other athletes dealt with the same thing. It also allowed me to brainstorm with other top competitors at our school on solutions to common problems on our teams. This helped transfer over into any group led environment even if it was off the field. The members and leaders of SALT helped me hone my leadership skills and become more comfortable taking charge when it’s necessary."
