- "Have I ever mentioned how much I f'n love these Phase 2 calls?!? Free cocaine. Straight outta the Dope Factory." – Geron Stokes
- "Another thing that I found is an intense interest of the subject is indispensable if you are really going to excel. I could force myself to be fairly good in a lot of things, but I couldn't be really good in anything where I didn't have an intense interest." – Charlie Munger
- Our Team Values & Behaviors:
- Curious: practice invested listening
- Honest: give direct feedback
- Intentional: provide purposeful action
- What is our edge as a TEAM? Our purpose, our values, and our behaviors. We are ACTIVELY doing it.
- Raw and Simple: We cut through the noise and address the fundamental issues leaders face. Our straightforward approach helps teams confront what they're not doing and empowers them to take actionable steps toward improvement.
- In The Arena: We don't just talk about leadership principles—we live them. Every member of our team actively practices the strategies we coach, ensuring real-world insights and practical solutions.
- Take Risks: We're unafraid to push boundaries and challenge conventional thinking. We help leaders take bold actions, even if it means stepping out of their comfort zones or facing tough consequences.
- Love being on a team that "makes the water rise." We all are better for being together on the same team.
- Gratitude – You can't roll up your sleeves and clench your fists at the same time. Living with gratitude is about recognizing and appreciating what you have. This will change the lens in which you view the world. Geron (overheard from Coach Mike Gundy): "I can't believe they pay us to do this." It is so much fun working with this team and the reward is that we get to keep doing it. So grateful.
- The makeup of a great team… They are tough, they have fun together, they care about each other, and they have that gritty humility about them. "Humble enough to listen, gritty enough to apply."
- Our prep calls – The calls before the calls. We learn so much from our preparation together. It's an open forum to share ideas, disagree, talk through stories, and figure out how to make people better. Some of my favorite times.
- How to work with the employee who just won't fully buy-in. Be curious, not judgemental. Ask questions. LISTEN. Care. As Sherri said, "Nobody wants to sleepwalk through life." We need to figure out what makes them come alive and help them bring that to the team.
