Students Take Over: The Leadership Lab with Jacob and Mac

This summer I'm releasing bonus episodes of The Take Home. No new
lectures on leadership, instead I'm sharing the amazing podcasts
created by the students in my Leadership for Sport Professionals
class.


Today's bonus episode features "The Leadership Lab" produced and
created by Jacob Ontiveros and Mac Douglas. In the podcast, they
interview Marcus Mlcak. Marcus is a Trinity alumnus
(@TrinityUAlumni) and Partner at EY. While at Trinity, Marcus was
on the golf team (@TrinityUGolf) and he’s continued to be active
in campus life serving as an alumni mentor in the 1869 Scholars
program. 


During the conversation Marcus talks about learning from failure,
how sports are crucibles for leadership development, and why
leaders must be able to work closely with those who are different
from themselves. He says that great leaders focus on “we, not me”
and why they must build relationships as a means to understand
how to motivate each employee as an individual, rather than a cog
in the machine. I love his servant leadership approach and I hope
you enjoy this episode as much as I did!
