Reflect on a time when you struggled to forgive someone who wronged you. What steps could you take to move toward forgiveness, and how might this transformation impact your leadership and personal growth? In our conversation, Don emphasized that great athletes "hate to lose more than they love to win" while taking complete ownership of their results. How do you currently respond to failure or setbacks? What specific changes could you make to embrace radical ownership while maintaining a healthy competitive drive? We discussed how the best leaders and athletes understand their success depends on who they surround themselves with. Evaluate your current "inner circle" - both professionally and personally. Who elevates you, and where might you need to make changes to better support your goals and values? Don highlighted the importance of celebrating "great teammate behaviors" rather than just individual achievements. What specific actions could you implement in your team or organization to recognize and reward those who make others better? The concept of "coaching beyond the scoreboard" was central to our discussion. What does this mean to you personally? Identify three ways you could focus more on process over outcome in your leadership approach this week.Download my FREE 60 minute Mindset Masterclass at www.djhillier.com/masterclassDownload my FREE top 40 book list written by Mindset Advantage guests: www.djhillier.com/40booksSubscribe to our NEW YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@MindsetAdvantagePurchase a copy of my book: https://a.co/d/bGok9UdFollow me on Instagram: @deejayhillierConnect with me on my website: www.djhillier.com
Leadership Lessons from the Legends: Pat Summitt and John Wooden This week on A New Direction with Coach Jay Izso, get ready for a masterclass in leadership, personal growth, and lasting impact as we welcome back breakthrough coach and best-selling author Brian Biro. His latest book, Lessons from the Legends, dives deep into the coaching brilliance of two of the greatest leaders in sports history—Pat Summitt and John Wooden. Join us for an inspiring, practical conversation rooted in the values that build champions—not just on the court, but in life. In this episode, Brian reveals the core principles that defined Summitt's and Wooden's legendary success: character over talent, discipline with compassion, preparation as a lifestyle, and leading with integrity. These aren't abstract ideas—they're daily practices you can apply whether you're coaching a team, in leadership in a company, parenting, or pursuing personal excellence. Brian unpacks how these values created not just wins, but legacies. You'll hear powerful stories of how Pat Summitt demanded accountability with fierce love, and how John Wooden's “Pyramid of Success” was more than a philosophy—it was a way of living and leadership that turned ordinary athletes into extraordinary people. Brian will help you see how these timeless lessons can help you build trust, grow influence, and lead with clarity and purpose in every area of your life. If you're tired of shortcuts and surface-level solutions, and you're ready for leadership wisdom that endures, this is the episode for you. Don't miss A New Direction—where success isn't just defined by what you achieve, but by who you become. Brian Biro's Book, Lessons from the Legends: New Applications from the Timeless Wisdom of John Wooden & Pat Summitt is powerful, impactful, practical, timeless, and desperately needed by all of us in today's world. Brian Biro, has examined the lives of these two successful and powerful coaches and has written a easy-to-read and thought-provoking book to stimulate your mind to living a better life and becoming a better leader. When you think about Pat Summitt's time as the University of Tennessee head coach, you think of championships. And you might believe that for her, it was about winning championships. However, that was only the result, what she was really doing was growing young women into champions and leaders in life. John Wooden was famed for his precise detail in all that he did. He developed his Pyramid that emphasized the cornerstones of industriousness and enthusiasm that the Pyramid would be built on. He not only taught it to his players, he lived it every day of his life. And as he developed the pyramid in his last 12 years of coaching he would win 10 National Championships. But his focus was not on the wins, it was making sure that the young men who played for him, would demonstrate great leadership. I have to be honest, this book is so full of wisdom, that I cannot possibly remember it all. I want to desperately because every lesson in the book is something I want to live by too. It took them years, even decades, to master their coaching. In the end, it requires work. And by the end of the book I found myself truly understanding I have a lot more work to do. Great book!

NFL Official Sarah Thomas, who worked Super Bowl LV and has been in the league for a decade, visits with Says Who Sports to share her thoughts on a variety of topics, including the Philadelphia Eagles blowout of the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. Thomas says that, aside from Super Bowl-specific preparation, NFL game officials prepare for battle year-round, including multiple offseason clinics and constant rules/situational testing by the league. Thomas details the hectic atmosphere of her Down Judge positioning along the line of scrimmage during a game, including the requisite ability for unwavering focus and execution on every play. Thomas, a former college athlete, recalls her disdain for game officials as a player, and discusses the newfound understanding and respect she gained for the job after attending her first-ever officials meeting at the local amateur sports level in her native Pascagoula, Mississippi. The meeting fueled her interest in officiating and launched a career that has now spanned three decades, including many years as an official in D1 college football in Conference USA and being selected to work multiple bowl games and Senior Bowls. She has worked numerous high-profile NFL contests including Monday Night Football, multiple playoff games and Super Bowl LV between the Chiefs and Buccaneers. Thomas talks about the excitement of receiving word from legendary NFL official Wayne Mackie that she'd earned the honor of officiating in Super Bowl LV, and the emotion of sharing the news with her parents.Thomas also discusses the inspirational impact made on her by Jill Upton, her aunt and the coach of the U.S. Women's Basketball team at the World University Games in Moscow in 1973 (the team included a young player named Pat Summitt). Upton encouraged Thomas, who loved playing basketball, to try out for the fifth-grade boys basketball team because there was no girls' team at the time. Thomas made the squad. She went on to play college basketball at the University of Mobile.Thomas has blazed an inspirational trail en route to becoming an official at the highest level of professional sports, and discusses the strong foundation of faith, work ethic and accountability (no excuses) instilled in her and her siblings by her parents.

The Super Bowl was yesterday. Congratulations to the Philadelphia Eagles! It was quite a performance by them. To you Kansas City Chiefs fans, I say "Sorry for your loss." You have been the pinnacle of greatness in the NFL for the last 6 or 7 years, and I see no reason why that won't continue. You have the best coach and quarterback in the game today, and you are a team of excellence.Today's podcast is about the difficulty that the Chiefs face that other teams are not facing yet - Staying on Top. The Eagles will have to deal with this next year. I have three quotes, plus a bonus quote, that discuss this concept of getting to the top, but more importantly, staying there. You'll also hear me talk about an upcoming episode or even a series about quotes by the originator of the bonus quote that you'll hear in today's episode.

In this episode of The Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Brian Biro, known as America's Breakthrough Speaker. Brian shared his incredible journey, which spans three distinct careers, including his time as a United States swimming coach and a corporate vice president before he transitioned into professional speaking over 35 years ago. His passion lies in helping individuals and organizations break through barriers and reach their full potential. We delved into the concept of breakthroughs, which Brian defines as the process of moving from fear to freedom, failure to faith, and good to great. He emphasized that breakthroughs are not just possible but can be planned by focusing on three key controllables: shaping your future, energizing and engaging yourself and your team, and building people, teams, and relationships. Brian elaborated on the importance of vision, stating that we must see our desired future before we can achieve it. He shared a poignant story about his grandson, Augie, to illustrate how our focus determines our path—whether we fixate on obstacles or envision ways to navigate around them. He also highlighted the significance of using our vision to see what is possible rather than relying on past memories that may limit our perspective. Energy plays a crucial role in human performance, and Brian discussed how we can elevate our energy through movement, purpose, and the conscious choice to engage positively with others. He shared personal anecdotes, including his relationship with his father, to illustrate how we can reclaim our energy by letting go of negative influences. As we wrapped up our conversation, Brian introduced his books, including "Beyond Success" and "Lessons from the Legends," which draw on the wisdom of legendary coaches John Wooden and Pat Summitt. He emphasized that true success is rooted in character and the ability to build meaningful relationships. In closing, Brian left us with a powerful challenge: to be fully present with those around us, reminding us that our job as leaders is to help others feel important and significant. He encouraged listeners to commit to being more present with two people in their lives for 30 days, fostering deeper connections and understanding. This episode is packed with insights and practical advice for nonprofit leaders and anyone looking to inspire and empower others. Brian's energy and passion for helping people break through their limitations are truly infectious, making this a must-listen for anyone seeking personal and professional growth.

In this episode of the Live with Grace Podcast, I sat down with the legendary Doug Dickey, a College Football Hall of Famer with a storied career as an athlete, coach, and athletic director. In this must-listen episode, we are honored to host Doug Dickey, a true titan of college football. As a player, coach, and athletic director, Doug's impact on the sport is nothing short of monumental. A former quarterback for the Florida Gators, Doug made his mark as the head coach of the Tennessee Volunteers from 1964 to 1969, where he led the team to two SEC championships and introduced game-changing innovations like Tennessee's "Power T" helmet logo, the T-formation, and the checkerboard end zones. His success continued at the University of Florida, where he served as head coach from 1970 to 1978. Beyond coaching, Doug's legacy includes a transformative tenure as the Athletic Director at Tennessee from 1985 to 2002. Under his leadership, the athletic department flourished, with the expansion of Neyland Stadium and the hiring of several successful coaches, further cementing Tennessee's status as a powerhouse in college sports. Coach Dickey was also friends and colleagues with the legendary Pat Summitt, the former Head Coach of the Lady Volunteers Women's Basketball Team. In recognition of his extraordinary contributions, Doug was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2003. In our conversation, Doug shares his insights on the evolution of college football, discussing how the game has changed and what it takes to succeed in the modern era. He delves into the qualities necessary for athletes and coaches to thrive at the highest levels, offering advice on embracing and growing into significant roles within elite teams.

Courtesy of the FanRun Podcast Network. Bob Kesling discusses his career as the Voice of the Vols and shares stories about Pat Summitt, John Ward, Lindsey Nelson and more
Pat Summitt was an American basketball player who won a silver medal at the 1976 Olympics and then transitioned into coaching leading the USA team to a Gold at the at the 1984 Olympics. However its as the coach of the Tennessee Lady Vols basketball team from 1974 to 2012 that she is most famous. Over her career she amassed 1098 wins and led the team to 8 NCAA championships.She was inducted into the Women's Basketball Hall of fame in 1999, was named the Naismith Basketball coach of the century in 2000and in 2012 was awarded the Presidential medal of freedom in 2012. After 38 years leading to Tennessee, she retired from coaching at the age of 59 due to a diagnosis of early onset Alzheimer's disease. She would eventually pass away in 2016 at the age of 64. She is mentioned so frequently by the Basketball coaches that we interview that I have decided to learn more about her life and this led me to put together a posthumous interview with her based on her words. I used 3 books to create this discussion all of which she wrote.Sum It Up: A Thousand and Ninety-Eight Victories, a Couple of Irrelevant Losses, and a Life in PerspectiveReach for the Summit: The Definite Dozen System for Succeeding at Whatever You DoRaise the Roof: The Inspiring Inside Story of the Tennessee Lady Vols' Groundbreaking Season in Women's College Basketball This episode was fascinating to put together, Pats coaching style was, by her own admission, very challenging and but in the context of her background and the times in which she was coaching I can also understand why it was this way. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.If you would like to send us any feedback or if you know a great coach, who has a unique story to share, then we would love to hear from you, please contact us at thegreatcoachespodcast@gmail.com or contact us through our website thegreatcoachespodcast.com Hosted on Acast.

Episode page with video, transcript, and more My guest for Episode #267 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Brian Biro, author of the new book Lessons from the Legends: New Applications from the Timeless Wisdom of John Wooden and Pat Summitt. After graduating from Stanford, Brian's first career was as a swimming coach. He received the prestigious United States Swimming National Coaching Excellence Award, in recognition of his team's Top 10 National Performance. After gaining his MBA from UCLA, he subsequently rose rapidly to become the VP of Performance Planning for a major transportation company, helping to turn the business around, and quadrupling revenues in record time. He has written 16 books, including bestsellers like Beyond Success! and It's Time for Joy! In today's episode, Brian shares his personal story of learning to be fully present with his family, a lesson that profoundly impacted his professional life and leadership approach. We explore the leadership principles of legendary coaches John Wooden and Pat Summitt, emphasizing humility, presence, and the avoidance of blame. Brian also reflects on modern leaders who embody these values, the importance of storytelling in leadership, and the influence of characters like Ted Lasso in promoting these timeless principles. Questions and Topics: You mentioned your daughters asking if you loved your phone more than them. How did that moment transform your approach to being present? Can you explain how being fully present affects both personal and professional life? Could you share a story about how presence impacted your professional relationships, like with your director of operations? What can we learn from the leadership styles of John Wooden and Pat Summitt? How did you first get connected with John Wooden? Can humility and confidence coexist in leadership? Are there current coaches or leaders you admire who exemplify the principles of Wooden and Summitt? What are your thoughts on Ted Lasso as a character and how he connects to Wooden and Summitt's coaching styles? How can leaders teach humility without relying on humbling experiences? Why do you think blame is so destructive in teams, and how can leaders avoid it? How does your book ‘Lessons from the Legends' apply to non-sports contexts like business or parenting?
The Drive HR 2 "Mistakes Made Under Pat Summitt" 6.17.24 by Fanrun Radio
Tennessee baseball enjoys prime positioning to reach the College World Series finals. The Vols' epic rally against Florida State in their first game in Omaha will go down as the one of the top moments in program history. Will it also be the moment that unlocked the path to win the program's first-ever national championship? On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and Mike Wilson rewind Tennessee's first two victories and assess what's ahead for the Vols. Wilson says Tennessee remains the team to beat in Omaha. He identifies two others from the SEC on the opposite side of the bracket as top threats: Kentucky and Texas A&M. Tennessee fans are making their presence felt in Omaha. Pat Summitt's Lady Vols won their last national championship in 2008. Tennessee's women's indoor track and field team won a national title in '09. Since then, Vols fans have been ravenous for something big to celebrate.
In this episode, Kerry interviews Tyler Summitt, son of eight-time NCAA Division I winning women's basketball coach, Pat Summitt. Tyler discusses the impact his mother had on himself and the players she coached, some of the memorable moments he had growing up, and Alzheimer's awareness.

Tennessee Vols Director of Athletics Danny White has hired Marshall head coach Kim Caldwell to coach the Lady Vols. Was this the right move to take over the historic program that Pat Summitt built?
