Terry
Pettit brings a unique perspective to championship
coaching, team building, and leadership training.
As
the Director of Leadership Academies at the University
of Denver and Colorado State University, Terry served
as a mentor coach to over one hundred coaches, team
captains and emerging leaders. He also presents and
conducts workshops on leadership and team building
for some of the most progressive athletic departments,
and corporations in the country. He prepared himself
well.
For
twenty-three years Terry was the head coach of one
of the most successful athletic teams in NCAA history.
Under Terry’s leadership the University of Nebraska’s
women’s volleyball team won twenty-one Big 8
and Big 12 conference championships while leading
the nation in both All American and Academic All American
selections.
He
directed the Nebraska volleyball team to forty-three
NCAA tournament victories and the school’s first
National Championship in women’s volleyball
1995. Terry earned National Coach of the Year honors
in 1986, 1994 and 1996 before becoming a mentor coach
to the University of Nebraska Athletic Department
in 2000. In 2003 he began his current passion, Terry
Pettit Coaching Enhancement.
What
makes Terry Pettit’s coaching and mentoring
success even more unique is his ability to communicate
a philosophy of leadership and team building that
reflects his experience as a poet, journalist and
championship coach. It is not often that a presenter
on leadership is as comfortable drawing examples from
modern poetry, architecture and contemporary films
as he is from a game plan to beat Oklahoma.
Whether
he is conducting a workshop on leadership and team
building or making a keynote presentation on the characteristics
of great coaching and team building, Terry Pettit
will motivate you to rethink the patterns that lead
to success.
