In addition to a passion for sports and an enthusiasm for coaching and mentoring, hiring an athletic director with strong people and communication skills is a must. From students and faculty, to parents, community members, media, and staff, athletic directors must interact with an array of groups on and off campus. That makes communication across various audiences a must-have for a successful athletic director. The pressure to win is just as important to athletic directors as it is for players and coaching staff. The typical list of qualifications and skills can include:
● Strong interpersonal communication
● Ability to manage relationships with coaches, school administrators, staff, students, and parents
● Skilled at providing motivation and direction to the coaches
