In this episode of The Daily Coach: Sports Leadership Lessons, we revisit the idea of being old school and why clinging to it can quietly limit leadership effectiveness. Using examples from sports and decision making, the episode challenges the belief that experience should outweigh new information. It explores how leaders who dismiss data, feedback, or evolving tools often confuse conviction with closed mindedness. The best leaders gather all available information, remain adaptable, and stay curious even when the moment feels uncertain. Growth begins when leaders keep their minds open and their standards high.
