What Our AWL in Sports Alumni Are Saying

“Do it! The AWL experience is transformative, equipping you with the knowledge, skills, and mindset to become a more effective and impactful leader.”

Marissa Moment Brown
Director of Community Tennis at USTA Missouri Valley

“Since beginning this journey, I’ve become much more intentional about the questions I ask and how I listen to those around me. This shift has truly been the most transformational part of my experience.”

Samantha Barany
Executive Director at CSCAA

“I continue to think about how to build self-reflection into my routine… I am learning so much about what is driving me, what's holding me back, what excites me, what terrifies me. The slowing down allows me to speed up in a thoughtful, intentional, and inspired way that positively impacts my people!”

Tanya Vogel
Consultant at The PICTOR Group and Former Associate Vice President of Athletics at The George Washington University
