🏆  Baby = Culture: Sue Enquist on Team Ownership and Lessons from John Wooden 

On this episode of the Significant Recruiting Podcast, I’m joined by legendary coach and consultant Sue Enquist for a powerful look at recruiting, leadership, and team culture. Sue shares one of her signature philosophies—“Culture is a baby, and the players are the babysitters”—and challenges recruits and parents to rethink how they approach building and protecting team culture. 

She also opens up about her mentor, the late Coach John Wooden, affectionately called “Papa”, and the timeless lessons she learned from one of the greatest minds in sport. 

Whether you’re an athlete, a parent, or a coach, this episode is full of wisdom on standing out in the recruiting process and thriving within a team.
