Want to be a better leader? Every year, I have the privilege of teaching a class at Boise State University. In the final class, I leave them with two powerful questions to reflect on—questions that can transform the way we lead and collaborate. Now, I want to ask you the same two questions.

Last night, I had one of those eye-opening moments where I realized I was making the exact mistake I coach leaders to avoid. It was frustrating, humbling, and honestly, a little funny.

Building a strong, cohesive team isn’t just about meetings and deadlines—it’s also about creating shared experiences. In this video, I’ll introduce a simple yet powerful strategy to bring your team closer together: establishing a new team tradition.

I’ve been quiet here recently for personal reasons. A story I shared with you last year took an unexpected turn, and it has been my focus lately. The story brings both good news and difficult news.

A few months ago, I shared the story of Eva, the daughter of dear friends, who is courageously battling terminal brain cancer. Eva’s dream is to leave a lasting legacy by creating a ninja warrior-style playground in our community.

My Boise State Broncos were struggling last year—until Coach Danielson stepped in. From that point on, the mood shifted and so did performance on the field. Fast forward to this season, and the Broncos continue to climb the ranks. What's the magic behind Coach D's leadership? I think it all comes down to this...

Today’s post is deeply personal for me. Join me in reflecting on what it means to create a leadership legacy.

Sometimes, we feel stifled by management, believing we could do our work more easily without the hierarchy in the way. Do we even need formal leadership structure in place if we have smart, high-performing employees? Google experimented with this idea in 2002. Find out what happened.
