Who is Anthony Washington Sr.?

Anthony Washington Sr. is a U.S. Army and Maryland Army National Guard veteran, a coach and official of more than twenty years, and the founder of After Today, LLC. He builds leadership training, athletic recruiting education, and people-first AI systems for student-athletes, families, schools, and organizations. He is based in Pennsylvania and works primarily across Pennsylvania and Maryland.

What does Anthony Washington Sr. do?

He works in three connected areas: athletic recruiting education that gives student-athletes and families a repeatable daily process, leadership training for first-time supervisors and public-sector leaders, and people-first AI and workflow implementation for organizations. He also speaks and runs workshops for schools, teams, and districts.

What is athletic recruiting infrastructure?

Athletic recruiting infrastructure is the repeatable system a family or program uses to manage recruiting — film, academics, communication with coaches, eligibility tracking, and follow-up — instead of relying on exposure events and luck. Anthony teaches recruiting as infrastructure so progress comes from a daily practice rather than a seasonal scramble.

What does people-first AI implementation mean?

People-first AI implementation means adopting AI to improve the work without displacing or sidelining the people who do it. In practice that means starting from the actual workflow, keeping a human accountable for decisions, training staff on the tools they will use, and setting guardrails before scale — not buying software and hoping the team adapts.

Who are Anthony's programs designed for?

Student-athletes and their parents, high school and grassroots coaches, athletic programs, schools and districts, first-time supervisors, public-sector leaders, and organizations that want leadership training or help implementing AI without leaving employees behind.

Does Anthony Washington Sr. provide leadership training?

Yes. He trains first-time supervisors and team leads on the first ninety days, difficult conversations, accountability, and building trust, drawing on his military service, public-sector supervision, and coaching experience. Training is delivered as courses, workshops, and organizational consulting.

How can a school, district, or organization work with Anthony?

Schools, districts, and organizations can book speaking engagements and workshops, bring in leadership training for supervisors and staff, or engage him on recruiting support and AI and workflow implementation. Start on the contact page and say which of those you need.

How can I book Anthony Washington Sr. to speak?

Send an inquiry through the contact page with your event date, audience, format, and location. The speaking page lists topics, session formats, and the audiences he speaks to most often.

Where is Anthony Washington Sr. based?

He is based in Pennsylvania and works primarily across Pennsylvania and Maryland, with virtual sessions available beyond that area.

You May Not Be Bad at Learning

commentary · September 16, 2026

Some people spend years believing they are bad at learning.

Some people spend years believing they are bad at learning.

Bad at math.

Bad at reading.

Bad at remembering.

Bad at training.

Sometimes the problem is not ability.

Sometimes the problem is the way the information is being presented.

That is why understanding your learning strengths matters.

Some people connect better with visual information like charts, diagrams, and examples.

Others learn by hearing information explained and talking it through.

Some prefer reading, writing, and organizing information into notes.

Others understand something best when they can actually do it, practice it, or apply it.

Most people use a combination.

The point is not to place yourself into a permanent category.

The point is to become more aware of what helps information make sense.

That awareness can change the conversation.

Instead of asking:

Why am I not getting this?

You can ask:

What would help me understand this better?

That question works for students.

It works for adults.

It works for parents.

It works for teachers.

It works for workplace trainers.

It works for anyone learning something new.

It also matters for the person doing the teaching.

Sometimes teachers, parents, coaches, and supervisors naturally present information in the way that makes the most sense to them.

That may not always be the way the learner processes it best.

A small adjustment in how information is presented can sometimes create a big difference in understanding.

That is the idea behind Your Learning Strengths.

Not labels.

Not excuses.

Awareness.

Better questions.

Better strategies.

More clarity.

If learning has ever felt harder than it should, it may be worth looking at the process before questioning your ability.
