Students Take Over: Leading the Game with Sofia, Jordyn, and Jack

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 "Leading the Game" produced and
created by Sofia Leobas, Jack Downes, and Jordyn Williams. In the
podcast, they interview Dean Mabson (@dean_mabson) from
Sheffield, England. Dean is the Managing Director at The Evo
Group and Head of Methodology at EvoSoccer/EvoRugby.


Dean details that leadership is ultimately about helping people
reach their hopes and dreams and in order to do so, leaders must
truly know their followers. He also describes that leaders are
innovators and life-long learners, who demonstrate a willingness
to be vulnerable. And I truly appreciate Dean’s two guiding
philosophies: 1) focus on solutions, not the problems and 2) hire
good people and get out of their way. 


Dean and Jack have a lively, engaging conversation and I hope you
enjoy this episode as much as I did! Let me know what you think;
reach out on LinkedIn or at @TingleJK on Twitter.
