We are joined by University of Mary’s Mike Silbernagel to discuss building a program from the ground up as a mentor. Mike is in a unique position coaching in Division II, and this has helped him become a better mentor to younger coaches, and build an actual coaching development program. He shares with us a few different things that they have done to help build a culture and support in the weight room and for the weight room, and how important that has been in their expansion. Mike then shares with us the different steps to their curriculum to developing coaches, from their first day on campus, to when they get full rains of training teams. He then talks about how having his coaches set goals help him keep them on track to reach their goals, and stay on track, and the role of social media and advice with how we can be better with it.
