Leadership Journey – “Win by Don’t” Show Notes:

This week on the Leadership Journey podcast, Keith and Brian get in depth on behavior. Brian calls this “Win by Don’t,” by painting a picture of how behavior is core to a program’s success. He gives us the five “Don’ts” that are pivotal not only to football but life. The hosts give real life examples of how this works and how they have been affected by different behavioral situations, emphasizing why it is important to have these instilled in your program if not already implementing them now.
