Leadership from the Locker Room:

Eric shares his 35 years as a television and radio sportscaster with multiples stories about owners, general managers, head coaches, and players to drawn parallels on how leading a sport franchise is very similar to leading a boardroom. Winning teams are anchored by great leadership and it's the same for successful companies. Every major failure you can think of—in a locker room or board room—has one thing in common: leadership was either absent or ineffective. These are leadership failures, not team failures. These decisions show up in the same places every time—regardless of industry, role, or title. And regardless if it’s the locker room or the board room.
They show up in how these leaders set the tone, align people, establish expectations, choose we over me, and develop others.
