In this episode of "What Kind of Leader Are You?", we dive into the fascinating world of sports leadership through the lenses of three iconic figures: Dabo Swinney, Nick Saban, and Deion Sanders. Join Coach Chris and Special Guest Lamont Hicks as we explore their unique coaching styles, philosophies, and the impact they've had on their teams and the broader sports community.

We'll compare and contrast the old-school versus new-school approaches to coaching, examining how these leaders navigate the complexities of modern youth sports. From Saban's disciplined, no-nonsense approach at Alabama, to Swinney's charismatic and relational leadership at Clemson, and Sanders' flashy, player-centric style at Colorado, each coach offers a distinct perspective on what it means to be an effective leader.

We'll also tackle the controversial topic: "Does everyone deserve a trophy?" and how participation trophies impact youth sports and the development of young athletes. Are they a necessary encouragement or do they undermine the value of hard-earned success?

Whether you're a coach, a player, or a sports enthusiast, this episode promises insightful discussions, expert opinions, and a deeper understanding of what it takes to lead in the world of sports. Tune in and discover what kind of leader you are!
