You are responsible for your mindset. You are responsible for your effort. You are responsible for your words. You are responsible for your attitude. You are responsible for your energy. You are responsible for your impact. Take ownership.

Culture crumbles when you cater to talent over character.

Leaders: take care of yourself first. Your mindset, your health, your perspective, your energy. This isn't selfish. It's you equipping yourself to give your team your best. You can't pour from an empty cup. You can't give what you don't possess.

Leaders: fight for your people. People: fight for your leaders. Culture falls apart when you make it all about you. Humility always.

Dick Vermeil said, "If you want to win over a person, first you have to win over their heart." He didn't lead with power - he led with connection. Here are his 7 leadership lessons that built THREE winning cultures:🧵

Adversity makes you better. Challenge makes you better. Discomfort makes you better. Being stretched makes you better. But only if you choose to use it. Growth is a choice.

Average leaders think talent is enough. Great leaders build a culture that unlocks the full potential of their talent. Lead on purpose.

If you don't care about people, stop trying to be a leader. Just focus on your work. Leadership is service, not power.

Leadership isn’t just about the head. It’s about the heart. It’s about having a vision and a strategy while caring enough to connect with your team to show why the vision benefits them, why their role matters, and build the trust and commitment to make it come to life.

"Championship culture rooted in belief, details and trust" As he enters year 3 at UW-Eau Claire, Athletics Director Jason Verdugo (UWEC AD) shares his message to the Blugold family! #RollGolds 🔗blugolds.com/news/2025/8/4/…

Consistently high performing teams are rooted in relational trust. Talent matters. Commitment matters. Strategy matters. It all falls apart under pressure if there is no trust. It all holds together under pressure when there is trust. Serve the vision. Serve the people.

Competitive people aren’t afraid of losing. They’re afraid of not competing:
