Podcast appearances and mentions of maureen electa monte

Maureen Electa Monte and I go ... way back! When she was an engineer, and doing photography, she photographed our first Portraits of cystic fibrosis black and white calendar in 2003. The wives of the Detroit Tigers, pretty much all of them pregnant, played in our first celebrity softball game. They played against law enforcement at a ballpark in Sterling Heights. Years ago when she was working at IBM she was the Engineer of the Year, she was a multi-sport athlete and MVP of her basketball team.Since then, Maureen has grown her personal brand and is an author.  Her first book, Destination Unstoppable is fabulous.  It teaches the reader how to be a successful team player.  As Maureen knows, as I have told her for years, if she could get in a room with the Detroit Lions, they would get to the Super Bowl, and win. Her next book Win like a Girl,  is where she talks about the framework needed to help coaches and parents develop powerful girls who overcome adversity and expand their comfort zone.  The book itself, and the message or powerful and empowering to everyone.It relates to the CF world too.  As parents, and persons with CF, we must always advocate for ourselves, and the ones we love.   Meet Maureen Monte: https://maureenmonte.com/five-fears/Coaching example, one on one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCu4-It9JFMFollow Maureen on social media: https://twitter.com/maureenemonteFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100004767524903Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maureenmonte/  Please like, subscribe, and comment on our shows, wherever you get your podcasts.Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Thanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en

There are three things that always hold true for teams: they all struggle, they all have untapped talent, and most of them haven’t defined their success. That’s where Maureen Monte steps in. With a background in corporate team building and a commitment to seeing young athletes succeed, she has found her place helping others reach their full potential. This week, she talks about leadership and team development and shares tips for finding success in sports, work, and everyday life. Monte has dedicated her life to facilitating these types of conversations among young athletes and employees alike. But while sports teams, especially, might define success as winning a particular championship or game, that’s not what defines the word for Monte herself. “I want them to win at the long game of life,” she says. She hopes the skills they learn now will serve them well whether they pursue athletics, the corporate world, or college down the line.

Maureen Electa Monte was first introduced to strengths in a leadership class in 2006. She immediately started using strengths with her own grad students, with a focus on teams. She recently authored the book “Destination Unstoppable”, which discusses a model for leading, accelerating and fully harnessing the talent on a team. She is able to ignite the chemistry on teams by helping them understand their own and each teammate’s CliftonStrengths. Providing a renewed energy and optimism. Maureen’s primary work has been with sports teams, but she also works with business teams. The difference, she says, is the mindset of the coach and business leader. A coach knows he needs to invest in his players to win. A business leader doesn’t always see it from that perspective. With a business leader she has to first help them understand why developing their team is a worthy investment for them.To learn more about becoming a Certified Strengths Coach at the Gallup Strengths Center: http://on.gallup.com/1i5OXhq.Gallup's Called to Coach is a live Webcast that targets current and prospective coaches to interact with Gallup experts and independent strengths coaches who have found success in strengths-based development.
