The Head Women’s Basketball Coach at Ripon College in Ripon, Wisconsin Lauren Busalacchi joins the pod. Ripon is coming off of a 20 win season and their 4th straight with 17+ wins. We talked a lot about her ability to create culture and what has allowed her to be so successful at Ripon. We also talked about the struggles she faced at the beginning of her tenure, and the changes she realized she needed to make. She also tells me about her playing days at Clarke, how she pursued her Doctorate and coaching career at the same time, and what she learned along her journey. Finally we talk about how learning about Tribal Leadership changed her life (This is an awesome story!) and she tells me about why she is excited for the future of Ripon WBB.
