"Grit Leadership has been a vital source for me as a new athletic director. The evaluation creates a partnership between coaches and ADs to have non-threatening, data-driven, improvement-based conversations. Kevin is always accessible and has been a great friend and partner as I grow and improve as a leader."

"Observing Kevin and Grit Leadership impact athletic programs has been one of the most rewarding experiences I have had in my role at Baylor University. Kevin is equipped and prepared to lead athletic departments to raise their standard of excellence. If you care about improving your athletic program and helping students, you need to contact Grit Leadership, today."

"Grit Leadership has developed a great survey tool / data collection item -- that will aid and assist Athletic Director's in one of the hardest parts of the job -- reviewing the coach and how they work with students, parents and how they view themselves in comparison to reality. We have looked at many tools and this is data driven, been tested for reliability and a number of our schools are already using it -- sing its praises and have found that it really assists the growth of their coaches. It focuses on a Growth Mindset, rather than reactionary or retaliation toward coaches."

"Like our athletes, I need constant “nudges” to keep from getting complacent and Grit Leadership provides that. It has been a huge blessing to not only me but our athletic program as well. Kevin is always available to help, and there is absolutely no question that he wants our students and our program to flourish."

"Grit Leadership is a win-win-win. I’m better equipped as a coach. My athletes are performing better on the field. And, most importantly, my athletes are better prepared for life beyond sport."

"With Grit Leadership, I am able to walk coaches through a comprehensive, data-driven evaluation system, informed by the athletes, that helps coaches truly improve. I would recommend Grit Leadership to any AD who is serious about building their program."

"Grit Leadership's content is rich, diverse, and easily accessible for our coaches who are so often focused on the day-to-day details of their program. Grit Leadership Evaluations have been a game-changer for our athletic department's ability to evaluate coaches effectively."

"I believe that Grit Leadership has the type of data-driven ideas that we need more of in athletic department leadership."

"What sets this system apart is its comprehensive, feedback-driven approach. By incorporating evaluations from both coaches and student-athletes (and parents), it provides a well-rounded perspective on leadership effectiveness. This ensures that development isn’t just based on numbers or checklists but on real, actionable insights that drive meaningful growth."

“By using this tool, I can ensure that our coaching staff is developing the necessary skills to lead with confidence and foster a positive environment for growth and success. With the information, we are able to have authentic conversations with coaches. Grit Leadership has been a game changer for our athletic department.”

“Before Grit Leadership, I struggled to find an objective performance assessment tool. Evaluations can be subjective and perceived as negative when minimal evidence is gathered and used to make decisions. Grit Leadership has allowed me to collect feedback from the school community and coaches for analysis, planning, and growth purposes.”

"Coaches are in the business of feedback as we constantly give feedback to our players about how they play and how they practice. But a great coach also desires feedback from his players to better assess his ability to teach his sport and reach his players. GRIT Leadership helps our coaches receive meaningful feedback and grow."
