| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this paper is to research and determine the factors of communication that leaders within organizations use that affect the exit process of collegiate athletes. The research focuses on former NCAA Division I athletes who have exited their respective sport in the last 5 years and includes details about their exit process and how the exchanges between them and their coaches and/or leaders in the athletic organizations impacted their macro role transition out of sports. A major goal of the paper was to generate a list of best practices for coaches and other leaders within athletic departments to aid athletes in the process of exiting their sport and help them mitigate mental and emotional struggles as they leave. | en_US |
