How to Create a Culture of Winning with John Beam

mardi 18 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:10:51

This is an episode to honor the late, great John Beam who passed away last week. John was the Athletic Director and former Head Football Coach at Laney College in Oakland, CA. He and I met in 1989 when I arrived at Skyline High School in Oakland where he coached football for 22 years. John and his Laney College Eagles were featured in the series Last Chance U on Netflix in 2020. As an incredibly successful high school and college football coach over more than 40 years, John knew a lot about how to build a winning culture – in football, business, and life. This interview was conducted in August of 2020 and we are re-airing this conversation in honor of John's great life, wisdom, and legacy.

We live in a world obsessed with blame; constantly focused on who's at fault for the various challenges we face, individually and collectively. While this makes sense and is understandable for so many reasons, it doesn't serve us and often leads us down an unproductive path. On this episode, I talk about the disempowering aspects of blame and offer some ideas for how we can shift to responsibility in an authentic and effective way.
