Being Mic’d Up is Not Enough

With college football bowl season and the NFL playoffs close, lots of eyes will be on big games. During these games, players and coaches are sure to see and share viral clips of powerful mic’d up moments of leadership. We love these moments. However, we want players to understand that this is only a tiny portion of what real leadership looks like. It is not the only thing or the thing that makes you a leader. Being a successful communicator, motivator, and encourager in the brightest lights is a culmination of so many behind the scenes leadership moments that have built up over time, and we want to coach our athletes up on this fact because those parts of leadership are not seen on TV. We hope this episode can be a great learning experience for your players.

Have fun and #LeadEmUp

We also break down the true separators at the Division I level, earning respect without forcing it, and how leadership changes when pressure increases. This conversation is a masterclass in earned leadership, humility under pressure, and what it takes to thrive in elite environments.

    Ep. 154: Leadership That’s Aged Badly

    Not all leadership development practices stand the test of time. Some ideas that once sounded effective have aged badly and may actually hold coaches and teams back today.

    In this episode, we take a hard look at the leadership concepts that no longer work and the ones that still matter. From believing that one way of thinking fits every situation, to trying to lead alone without collaboration, to calling for help only when things fall apart, we unpack the three biggest mistakes that keep leaders stuck in old habits. Join us as we explore what modern leadership really requires.
