Jen Welter Biography

Dr. Jen Welter is widely recognized as the first female coach in NFL history, specifically coaching the Arizona Cardinals' inside linebackers during their 2015 training camp. She also holds the distinction of being the first woman to coach a men's professional football team, serving as linebacker and special teams coach for the Indoor Football League's Texas Revolution. Additionally, Welter was the first woman to play running back in a men's professional football season with the same team.

Welter's widely-acclaimed book "Play Big: Lessons in Being Limitless from the First Woman to Coach in the NFL", released in October 2017, provides a detailed account of her challenges and victories in the male-dominated field of sports. Her strong academic background includes a doctorate in psychology and a master’s in sport psychology. Welter has diverse experience in football, having served as a defensive specialist for the Atlanta Legends, a linebackers coach for the Vegas Vipers, and was the head coach of the Australian women's national team in 2017.

Welter has been honored with the Women's Entrepreneurship Day Pioneer Award for her substantial contributions to sports. She was also featured in Mogul's #IAmAMogul campaign for her role in redefining the perception of an NFL coach. Her speaking engagements enrich discussions on themes such as breaking barriers, authentic leadership, achieving the impossible, and the value of diverse teams.

Jen Welter Reviews

  • Jen is such an interesting and likable person. She attended our Welcome Reception the day before the event as a way to familiarize herself with the space and meet the key stakeholders in advance of the event - a gesture that was greatly appreciated. She is such a dynamic force with an equally compelling story to tell.
    Indeed, Inc. - Dec 05 2022

  • Network of Executive Women - Oct 20 2021

  • The group really enjoyed Jen! There was a lot of laughter and people swarmed her after to take pictures, get autographs and talk about their own stories. Jen could not have been more gracious and flexible. She was so warm to all our guests and formed an instant rapport and sisterhood.
