Our mission is to equip high school student-athletes with leadership skills in sports and beyond. Through mental skills training and character development, we guide student-athletes to become leaders on the field, in the classroom, at home, and within their communities.
Better People Leadership was founded by Timothy Reinhardt, a former collegiate and professional athlete, licensed high school history teacher, and varsity baseball coach.
During his career as a teacher and coach, he noticed that while student-athletes often focus on mastering the Xs and Os and sport-specific skills, little attention is given to developing the mental skills and character traits essential for true leadership. If we want our student-athletes to be leaders, it is our responsibility to teach them how.
Better People Leadership workshops are designed to meet that need. Rooted in research from top professional and collegiate athletes, coaches, and experts in mental skills training and athletic leadership, our interactive workshop helps high school student-athletes build the foundation to lead both on and off the field.
Many programs offer leadership training for high school athletes - but the Better People Leadership workshop stands out. Grounded in research on mental skills and athletic leadership, it is uniquely designed and led by a licensed high school educator. Using proven classroom strategies, the workshop engages student athletes in ways that are relevant, relatable, and effective.
