Today, sports fans and high achievers, you're in for a treat! Empathy is not soft. It's not weak. Nothing thrills me more than when I can share examples of empathetic leadership that help win national championships or create winning sports dynasties. You may recall my example of Golden State Warriors coach, Steve Kerr, in my book, The Empathy Dilemma.Emmy award-winning producer and sports broadcaster Jen Mueller shares how she's seen coaching and leadership styles evolve in the last few decades, how she conducts sideline interviews with athletes who may have either had the worst or best day of their careers, why empathy is not just showing up on a bad day, but encouraging and celebrating your team's best days, and why top athletes and performers crave clarity and feedback in order to get better. You'll get so many tips on how to deliver feedback, ask the right questions, and infuse joy and levity into your team for championship-level performance. To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:We don't need or want to be cruel in the name of candor. Candor and clarity are empathetic and can help everyone understand where they are at. Prepare ahead so that you can be with your team in the moment. Consider: how do you give somebody permission to talk about their win and an easy way to share in that celebration with everybody else?You can lead a high-performance team, while still leaving room for emotion, feelings, and disappointment when things don't go well. "We assume that everybody understands what winning and losing look like and they don't. When you are clear, now people can do their job to the highest level." — Jen MuellerReferences Mentioned: Welcome to Wrexham: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0D77Y5BMG From Our Partner:SparkEffect partners with organizations to unlock the full potential of their greatest asset: their people.

However, there is not much clarity from the team and what exactly it will look like, which leaves many who work for the network in the dark.  Jim and Puck discuss how unfair it is for the M's still keep their employees in the lurch of what their plans are. They wonder why the Mariners don't just steal a play out of the Kraken playbook and go on local television and then offer a streaming service.   The Seattle Times also had a story about the wild success that the Kraken are having with their Kraken Hockey Network and so far early in the season it has been a runaway success compared to being on ROOT Sports the last few years.  They also turn their attention to what the Mariners will do in free agency and the likelihood that they will sign Justin Turner and or Carlos Santana.  Puck doesn't think a serious organization brings back a 40 and 39 year old, however, Jim disagrees and likes what Turner brings. PuckSports handicapper TroyWins.comjoins Puck and Jim to go over all the football bets for the weekend and at the end they give our their “Dogs of the Week.” Chris Egan, KING 5, joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his weekly chat.  They navigate Thanksgiving food traditions, high school football playoffs, Thanksgiving vs. Christmas and they discuss the funeral of former sportscaster Tony Ventrella. Egan and Puck have a spirited back and forth over the debate of Christmas and Thanksgiving.

On today's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by his weekly guests, Mike Garafolo, NFL Network and new weekly guest, Michael-Shawn Dugar, The Athletic.  Puck starts off the show promoting his Mariners Offseason DiamondTable Show that features his regular baseball guests: Ryan Divish and Adam Jude, Seattle Times.

How much do the Seahawks need Smith and how much does Geno need the Seahawks?Where will Aaron Rogers end up next season?  Any chance he could land in San Francisco?  Will there be a number of suitors for him?Are Deion Sanders and his son a package deal to the NFL?  If they are, where?  Was the Bills win over the Chiefs important?  Did the Steelers once again offer the blueprint how to beat Lamar Jackson and the Ravens?The “Dugar Report” with Michael-Shawn Dugar, The Athletic as he joins Jason “Puck” Puckett for his brand new weekly appearance taking the latest with the Seattle Seahawks.  Mike and Puck get right into the win over the 49ers and what was the single biggest reason for the win. Mike told Puck that Mike Macdonald offered a different tone than what Pete Carroll would always preach.  It was great to have Abe Lucas back on the field and you could tell immediately that he was a difference maker and he raised the play of the entire offensive line. Geno Smith continues to be hot topic with fans and media and showed again with his last second drive why he continues to be such a polarizing topic and player. Mike gets into a very interesting discussion with Puck on the team building philosophy of Mike Macdonald and how it's different than the rest of the league thinking  and how it harkens back to an older style of football. They also discuss the 49ers window and look ahead to the Seahawks matchup with the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.  Lastly, Puck wraps up the Thursday show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?”   Money is not everything for everyone.  Washington State defensive tackle David Gusta illustrated that this week with Puck. Happiness is being where you are and in the present.
