Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame | 2018
A veteran of nearly 20 seasons of professional basketball, Katie Smith quietly and confidently established herself as one of the top female players of the modern era. Smith’s leadership qualities shone immediately at The Ohio State University where she led the Buckeyes to the NCAA Final Four as a freshman in 1993. Eight years later, Ohio State would honor the 1996 Big Ten Player of the Year as the first female student-athlete in school history to have her number retired. After a successful collegiate career, the Ohio native led the ABL’s Columbus Quest to the only championships in league history in 1996 and 1997. The seven-time WNBA All-Star then won two more championships with the Detroit Shock of the WNBA and was a two-time First Team All-WNBA performer during her time with the Minnesota Lynx. In 2011, Smith was named one of the WNBA’s Top 15 Players of All-Time. She retired in 2013 as the all-time leading scorer in women’s professional basketball. The 2006 WNBA All-Decade member won three Olympic gold medals in 2000, 2004, and 2008.

Angela Lee Duckworth | GRIT: The Power of Passion & Perseverance (Ted Talk)
In her late 20s, Angela Lee Duckworth left a demanding job as a management consultant at McKinsey to teach math in public schools in San Francisco, Philadelphia and New York.
After five years of teaching seventh graders, she went back to grad school to complete her Ph.D. in psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, where she is now an assistant professor in the psychology department. Her research subjects include students, West Point cadets, and corporate salespeople, all of whom she studies to determine how “grit” is a better indicator of success than factors such as IQ or family income.
Julie Lythcott-Haims | How to Raise Successful Kids without Over Parenting
Julie Lythcott-Haims is the author of the New York Times best-selling book How to Raise an Adult: Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kid for Success. The book emerged from her decade as Stanford University’s Dean of Freshmen, where she was known for her fierce advocacy for young adults and received the university’s Lloyd W. Dinkelspiel Award for creating “the” atmosphere that defines the undergraduate experience. She was also known for her fierce critique of the growing trend of parental involvement in the day-to-day lives of college students.
Toward the end of her tenure as dean, she began speaking and writing widely on the harm of helicopter parenting. By loading kids with high expectations and micromanaging their lives at every turn, parents aren’t actually helping. At least, that’s how Julie Lythcott-Haims sees it. With passion and wry humor, the former Dean of Freshmen at Stanford makes the case for parents to stop defining their children’s success via grades and test scores. Instead, she says, they should focus on providing the oldest idea of all: unconditional love.
