Joe Moglia

TD Ameritrade, Former CEO
EPISODE 164

Develop a coaching mentality

Joe Moglia is the former head football coach of Coastal Carolina University AND the former chairman and CEO of TD Ameritrade.

There aren’t a lot of people out there who can be both an award-winning coach AND a world-class CEO.

That is some serious range!

And yet Joe has an incredibly consistent leadership style, no matter what he’s doing.

For him, it is ALL about the people he serves. Whether he’s leading football players or sales people, he knows… it’s not about him. It’s about his team.

They’re the ones out there getting stuff done. And his job is to support them and serve them and coach them to success.

When you approach leadership with a coaching mentality like that, EVERYTHING changes. Listen to this episode and see how it’s done!
