    Former United States Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice encourages you to build bridges as a leader

    REWIND EPISODE: In celebration of 200 episodes published, we are “rewinding” back to one of my favorite conversations from 2022— my interview with Dr. Condoleezza Rice. You may know her as Secretary of State, National Security Advisor, and Director of Stanford’s Hoover Institution, but in this episode you will learn her background as a figure skater, tennis player, and a football savant. Her football coach father taught her so much about the game, she could break down defenses at just six years old! Our BONUS RESOURCE for this episode includes my favorite quotes from today’s episode and a reflection question so you can apply today’s insights.  Episode Breakdown: 3:00 The elements Condoleezza looks for when identifying a great team. 10:00 How football served as a “bridging language.” 12:00 Behind the scenes of the College Football Playoff Committee (CFP). 13:00 How serving on the CFP taught her to assess teams “with a coach’s eye.” 15:00 How to be a better listener and recognize common ground. 19:00 Lessons learned from being “terrible” at figure skating. 25:00 The moment she was invited to join Augusta National Golf Club. 28:00 What she learned playing golf with Bubba Watson. 36:00 How to eliminate gossip on your team.” Looking for a speaker for your next event? From more than 30 years of interviewing and studying the greatest winners of all time Don offers these live and virtual presentations built to inspire your team towards personal and professional greatness.  Special thanks to Francisco Nunez for making this episode possible.
