Leadership Publishing Team Founder is the author of several books and is the editor of The Coaching and Leadership Journal A huge part of my coaching foundation was formed when as a very young coach, I got the opportunity to work the Duke Basketball Camp.

After two seasons, she moved onto High Point, and after much success there, she was hired as the head coach at Wake Forest, where s...
