Coaching Lessons and Parental Competitiveness in Youth Sports

What type of leadership builds a culture of winning and excellence? Is an approach that prioritizes joy, care, and love, more effective than one that's more demanding or authoritarian? Using examples from contemporary sports, and in the wake of the departure of three of the most storied football coaches of all-time—Nick Saban, Bill Belichick, and Pete Caroll—each of whom fostered a unique type of culture, Steve, Brad, and Clay discuss the merits of various coaching styles. You'll learn the importance of psychological safety (and how to cultivate it), the difference between demandingness and responsiveness, and why self-awareness might be the single most important attribute of a leader.
