This week we welcome on Head Coach of the York University Lion’s Women’s Hockey Team Daniel Church. Dan is currently pursuing a Master’s in Athlete Leadership which we explore in the conversation. We also chat about using some of the principles made popular by the All Blacks in New Zealand such as Transformational Leadership and the Dual Management Model. We talk about how this all makes groups successful and get a taste of what his team structure is at York. Finally we chat about his time with Hockey Canada and how that helped him become the coach he is today!
You can check out all the resources recommended by our guests, including some of the articles Dan mentions in the conversation, in our drive: https://bit.ly/t-c-r-drive
