🎙️ Building Culture Fast: Why Dawson Dickson Is a Rising Star in College Basketball Coaching 

What does it take to build a winning culture when your roster changes every year?

This week, I sit down with Dawson Dickson, Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Great Bay Community College (NH), to talk about leadership at the junior college level and why he’s quickly becoming one of the rising young coaches to watch.

In this conversation, Dawson shares:
 🏀 How to build culture and accountability quickly
 📈 Why progress matters more than the scoreboard
 💬 How high expectations and daily energy drive player growth
 👥 What it really means to mentor and motivate today’s student-athletes

If you’re a coach, athletic director, or leader who wants to build a program that develops people—not just players—this episode is for you.

And be sure to come back Monday for Part 2, where we shift the conversation to the junior college recruiting pathway and how athletes can use JUCO to advance to the four-year level.
