This fall I'm releasing bonus episodes of The Take Home. No new lectures on leadership, instead I'm sharing the amazing podcasts created by the students in my Leadership for Sport Professionals class. 

Today's bonus episode features "Leading Together" produced and created by Mariel Clark, Matthew Jacobe, and Austin Sanders. In a creative podcast format, Mariel, Matthew, and Austin reflect on how what they learned in class is highlighted during their interview with Valerie Alexander, the CEO at Speak Happiness https://www.speakhappiness.com. 

During the interview they discuss the importance of a liberal arts education, gendered-leadership expectations, unconscious bias, and the importance of feeling fulfilled in the workplace. And I think you'll love the penguin analogy, the metaphor for swimming with the current, and the Jackie Robinson standard. Valerie is a phenomenal guest and I hope you enjoy the episode! 

I would be grateful if you'd let me know what you think at @TingleJK.
