Abstract
The purpose of the project is to outline the importance of Leadership in sports and how to effectively create a winning culture within your teams. Leadership is not the singular job of one athlete or captain. In fact, research has shown the effectiveness of shared leadership through a leadership council. Having a council allows for others to build their leadership and communication skills with their peers and take on responsibility as a group rather that having it all fall on one individual. The Design and Implementation of a Leadership council can be easily broken down into 4 Key steps: Application Process, Teaching, Delegate, Extreme ownership.
