Roy Williams
Get better every single day
Roy Williams is without a doubt one of the best college basketball coaches of all time. As the men’s head basketball coach at two storied programs – Kansas and UNC – he won three national championships and made nine Final Four appearances.
And through every moment, Roy had one standard: don’t step off the court until you’ve gotten better. That applied to his players, his staff, and himself.
Most leaders know they should focus on daily improvement. The hard part is actually making it into something real instead of just empty words. In this episode, Roy will show you how to build that discipline into your team without it feeling like a grind, and how to push your team toward big goals without burning them out.
Plus you’ll hear some incredible off-the-court stories, including one about Michael Jordan that just might explain his legendary work ethic.
You’ll also learn:
- The daily practice system that kept his teams sharp
- How to lead with emotion and vulnerability
- The trick to recruiting (which applies to any sales job)
- Why just setting a high standard for your team isn’t enough
