About this episode
This episode explores leadership through chapters from the book 'Captain', featuring stories from Shane Battier and Abby Wombach.
This week we are taking a deep dive into leadership on the podcast. We're currently in negotiations to record an audio book version of Captain: The Athlete's Guide to Being an Exceptional Team Leader . We thought it might be cool to listen to a few of the chapters from the book. In this week's podcast, we have one chapter from each section of the book. In the Qualities of Leadership section, we share a chapter on how to lead by example with an amazing story from NBA champion Shane Battier. On the Responsibilities of Leadership, we share a story from World Cup and Olympic champion soccer player Abby Wombach.
