In this episode of the Dreamers Beware podcast, I sit down with Scott Young, a teacher and former swimming and diving coach at Albany Academy, to dive deep into the true meaning of TEAM.
During this episode we talk about what it’s really like stepping into a program as a new coach, how to honor what already exists while intentionally shifting culture, and the mistakes coaches often make when trying to create change to quickly.
