Jamy Bechler - Building a Player-Driven Culture

Gary is joined by coach, author, professional speaker, and consultant to NBA and college athletic teams, Jamy Bechler. He has just released a new book called 'The Bus Trip' and he discusses the following questions with Gary:

- What is the starting point for a coach to build a leadership group that can eventually drive the standards?

- How can a coach facilitate more meaningful communication amongst their team?

- How can a coach deliver a "life lesson" if the player gets a different message from parents?

- Is it harder for players today to have those peer-to-peer conversations with the role of technology and social media?

- Can a coach have a great culture and still lose games?

And much, much more!!
