Leading with Purpose: Sean McVay on Faith, Family, and Building a Championship Culture


Listen Later

In this episode of Growth Over Goals, host Jordan Montgomery sits down with Sean McVay—Super Bowl-winning head coach of the Los Angeles Rams—for a powerful and deeply personal conversation on leadership, faith, and the power of developing others.

Sean opens up about the leadership values that have shaped his journey, including how he identifies and cultivates talent, the importance of character over credentials, and why creating a culture of positive peer pressure is essential for high-performing teams. From elevating assistant coaches into head coaches to embracing feedback from players, McVay shares the mindset that has made him a leader of leaders.

The conversation also explores:

  • How Sean’s faith anchors his purpose and decision-making

  • The influence of his father, Tim McVay, and the humility modeled through their relationship

  • What becoming a father has taught him about leadership

  • How a 5–12 season after a Super Bowl win became the most formative year of his career

  • Why authenticity, vulnerability, and truth-seeking matter more than ever in leadership

Whether you're a coach, executive, parent, or aspiring leader, this episode will challenge you to lead with humility, stay grounded in your values, and use your platform to serve others.
