SADL 513 - Building Sport Constituencies

Sport administration involves a delicate balance of understanding and managing a variety of constituents with conflicting priorities. Without a clear process for working with these constituents and the personal skills to manage the process, sport administrators are confronted with increased levels of political risk. This course will identify and describe the various constituencies; define, discuss, and develop a clear understanding of the necessary personal skills for engaging them; and help you create a process to maximize your ability to build the consensus required to support getting things done in the complicated and pressure- filled environment of sport. 3
