Kirsten Bernthal Booth: Leading For The Greater Good

This week Andrew welcomes Creighton Volleyball Head Coach & 3x National Coach of the Year Kirsten Bernthal Booth back to the show.  In 2002, Kirsten inherited a 3-23 team and since then has steadily built Creighton Volleyball into one of the most successful programs in the US. In addition to her role at Creighton, Kirsten also recently began her term as American Volleyball Coaches Association President. This episode is an even deeper dive on many of the topics Andrew & Kirsten first discussed on the podcast back in 2022. It's filled with powerful ideas on leadership, collaborating with “opponents” for the greater good, & why we all win when we lift each other up. You’ll hear actionable lessons that will help you become a better leader, energize communities around a common cause, & so much more.
