TheLeadershipPlaybook.com helps athletic departments and sports teams build stronger cultures by developing better teammates and more positive leaders. As part of the online curriculum, the program has hundreds of two-minute video lessons to increase a person's leadership abilities and develop life skills.

The program was developed by Jamy Bechler, a former college basketball coach and high school athletic director. Bechler is now a professional speaker, team performance consultant, and host of the "Success is a Choice" podcast. He is also the author of five books, including The Bus Trip and The Captain.

"We're thrilled to recognize Tiffany D. Tucker as an example of not just an administrator, but as a leader," said Bechler. "Though dotting I's and crossing T's are important, it's always exciting to see someone with a larger purpose than just administering and managing. The best leaders seek to make the people around them better and build a stronger, healthier culture."

Deserving administrators from across the United States were nominated by their peers, coaches, teachers, community members, student-athletes, and in some cases, even individuals from other schools.
