Sherri Coale

Sherri Coale, Hall of Fame basketball coach, educator, and author, joins Master Move to explore what it takes to build a lasting culture of excellence. As the longtime head coach of the University of Oklahoma women’s basketball program, Sherri led her teams to Final Fours, Big 12 Championships, and 19 straight NCAA tournaments — but her leadership lessons reach far beyond the court.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• How clarity, consistency, and private victories shape culture
• The art of leading through relational trust, not control
• How presence and awareness unlock deeper leadership
• Lessons from motion offense about communication, selflessness, and timing
• Why reflection — even when difficult — accelerates growth

Drawing from her books Rooted to Rise and The Compost Files, Sherri shares wisdom on leadership, coaching, and living with purpose that is as timeless as it is powerful.

Listen now to discover why true leadership isn’t about dominance — it’s about connection, vision, and perseverance.
