How Are You Wired? is a leadership podcast created by basketball coaches Joe Willis (Plant High School) and Billy Teeden (Florida College). The show explores how successful leaders in sports build culture, develop people, and stay focused on what matters most.
In this episode, Coach Willis and Coach Teeden sit down with Craig Damon, Executive Director of the Florida High School Athletic Association. Craig shares insights into how he is wired as a leader while overseeing high school athletics across the state of Florida, the experiences that shaped his leadership philosophy, and how he balances the needs of student-athletes, coaches, schools, and communities.
He also discusses the importance of education-based athletics, making difficult decisions under pressure, and how strong leadership helps keep organizations aligned with the “main thing” — providing meaningful opportunities for student-athletes to grow both on and off the court.
🟢 Presented by the Florida Association of Basketball Coaches (FABC)
