$19.99
  • Embark on a journey from underperformance to excellence with Dare to Win, the one-of-a-kind collaboration by Chantal Vallée and Dr. Gordon Bloom

    Based on years of their own leadership and coaching research, Vallée and Bloom unveil the proven strategies behind the University of Windsor women’s basketball team’s historic rise from last in the country to five-time national champions. Until now, the world’s foremost leadership researchers were not professional coaches; similarly, the top coaches were not scholars. Dare to Win changes this narrative by applying Vallée and Bloom’s scientifically proven leadership theories and coaching model successfully in a practical setting.

    Dare to Win isn’t just theory; it’s a fusion of insights, real-world examples, and Vallée’s personal experiences as an academic researcher, leader, and championship-winning coach. Vallée’s unique perspective bridges the gap between leadership theories and practical coaching applications, offering readers unprecedented access to her thoughts and decision-making process.

    Through two decades of collaboration, Vallée and Dr. Bloom have created an invaluable resource for anyone looking to elevate their leadership, management, and coaching skills in the sports world and beyond. A must-read for any entrepreneur, business owner, coach, or leader who wishes to transform their start-up or struggling organization into a business that thrives. This comprehensive guide will inspire and empower you, providing the blueprint to reaching new heights in your journey toward success.
