    Are Players Held to A Higher Standard Than Coaches? Boston Celtics GM, Brad Stevens and Former Collegiate Football Coach, Chris Petersen

    Questions from the Episode:  1: Brad said, “If you wrap your identity around trophies, it won’t be as fulfilling.” We know this on paper. So why do so many people still do it? 2: Chris said if you get close and don’t achieve it, “You think: If I would have got it, everything changes. And, nothing changes.” If you knew in your heart that nothing changes, how do you think that could be a competitive advantage? 3: Brad said, “Players are oftentimes held to a higher standard than coaches when it comes to selflessness.” How do you think about that thought? And, when have you see that in your own life? 4: When it’s never enough, you’re always focused on what’s next. How do you prevent yourself from falling into that trap of an unfulfilling journey? What makes it hard for you personally? 5: Many people will say that confidence comes from preparation. But, there’s a line of diminishing returns. What’s the best lesson you’ve learned about your line of diminishing returns? Join hosts Brett Ledbetter and Becky Burleigh as they dive into high-performance strategies with Boston Celtics GM Brad Stevens and former collegiate football coach Chris Peterson. Reflecting on interviews from a decade ago, Brad Stevens shares insights about overcoming adversity and success, maintaining an even keel, and staying focused on the next step. Chris Peterson discusses the importance of self-awareness and not wrapping one's identity around trophies. The episode explores the nuances of coaching, the significance of preparation, and the challenge of balancing personal wellbeing with professional demands. Through deep conversations, they reveal valuable lessons on leadership, preparation, and finding fulfillment beyond victories.

    The Time Between Retirement and Irrelevance Is a Nanosecond with Mary Wise and Becky Burleigh

    What nobody tells you about endings in coaching: In this episode, Mary Wise and Becky Burleigh discuss the emotional weight of resignations, the effect on player relationships, and the struggle to maintain authenticity while navigating institutional expectations. Through personal stories, they share the hidden challenges of necessary endings and finding peace after coaching. Reflections from the Episode:  1. You’ve worked 2 decades at a place. You’ve poured your heart and soul into it. You see memorabilia in the trash can after the new regime has taken over as you walk by after being asked to visit them. What symbolism would you draw from that personally?  2. Fast forward to 55 years old. Imagine a family member saying to you, “I’ve never seen you so detached from your phone.” Then, your partner adding to the conversation, “You’ve lived with a perpetual worry face.” What would you think to yourself if that was said to you, about you, that night right before you went to bed? 3. Imagine witnessing a coach who played for that school and then coached at that school, take all of the gear that they’ve received over the years that had the school logo on it to a local Goodwill. What would be going through your mind as you watch that scene?  Download Reflections HERE Newsletter Sign-Up  MORE of What Drives Winning:  → Website: http://whatdriveswinning.com  → Speaking: https://whatdriveswinning.com/about-brett-ledbetter/#speaker  → Books: https://whatdriveswinning.com/shop  → Coaching Lab: https://whatdriveswinning.com/lab

    Have you ever been around a coach that overwhelms their team with information? When you prioritize everything, you prioritize nothing.

Why do you think when coaches use film, 75% of the time they show what it’s not supposed to look like as opposed to what it is supposed to look like?  2. What situation have you seen where a coach was short-term productive versus long-term productive due to their own ego and not what’s best for the athlete’s development?  3. What has been your philosophy on cold-calling team members to answer questions in group settings? After listening to this conversation, have you changed your mind on anything? Or, will you double down on something about your approach?  Download Questions HERE Newsletter Sign-Up  MORE of What Drives Winning:  → Website: http://whatdriveswinning.com  → Speaking: https://whatdriveswinning.com/about-brett-ledbetter/#speaker  → Books: https://whatdriveswinning.com/shop  → Coaching Lab: https://whatdriveswinning.com/lab

    What Do You Do When Your Best Player Doesn’t Represent the Standard? Featuring Rob Glass and Mouse Holloway

The reason you win can also be the reason you lose. Questions from the Episode:  1. When have you knowingly or unknowingly created a double-standard? 2. What situation have you been most fearful to hold the line with?
