Why is leadership killing culture? What are the 4 areas of leadership? How wide should these 4 areas spread within an organization? Coach Walsh's Standard of Performance How to instill accountability Why leaders need to be able to have difficult conversations The first thing a leader needs to do when they work with a new player Michael's unique system for finding talent Why SCOUTING is more about elimination than it is finding players The tension of having a separate GM and Head Coach vs one guy doing both jobs How to best deal with players who are major distractions The Famous 62 NICKEL play "Part of leading is to LEAD PEOPLE not just take the path of least resistance." The 'Got To Have It' Day approach of the New England Patriots Why there are only 3-4 current NFL coaches who have even played in a Super Bowl What was the BIGGEST MISTAKE of Michael Lombardi's career? Why hasn't anyone else been able to repeat the success of Bill Walsh? "It's harder to change people, than it is to create people." What's the best place for a young/new coach to start who wants to build a winning dynasty? Michaels biggest pet peeve in the NFL What's the #1 most successful style of leadership in the NFL?
