  • 23 - John Wooden - Families, Values, Virtues. (2/2)

    John R. Wooden's views on families, values, and virtues are timeless. They are as relevant today as they were when he was born in 1910. I hope you enjoy part 2.

  • 22 - John Wooden - Families, Values, Virtues. (1/2)

    We approach the land of the "holy" this week with John Wooden. Your favorite coach's favorite coach. The wisdom of Wooden is all over the place in athletic circles, and for good reason. He demonstrated so many good virtues and taught so many great lessons during his life.

    I myself have a rich history with the book we use as the source text today. I hope you enjoy this episode on the Wizard of Westwood.

  • 20 - Jimmy Johnson - Master Talent Evaluator (2/3)

    Jimmy Johnson is up there with Bill Walsh to me in regards to his ability to find diamonds in the rough, to think independently, and to apply a high degree of emotional intelligence to his personnel. I hope you enjoy this episode.

  • 19 - Jimmy Johnson - Unexpected Introvert. (1/3)

    You'll love studying Jimmy Johnson, more so than you think. He's an unexpected introvert, a master psychologist, and yes, brash and abrasive. All the things. Future episodes will be about his incredible abilities as a talent evaluator (2/3) and his emotionally painful years with the Cowboys (3/3). I hope you enjoy going deeper on the man. There is a ton to gain and learn.
