Students Take Over: Beyond the Scoreboard with Carmen, Brody, and Cam

This spring I'm releasing bonus episodes of The Take Home. No new lectures on leadership, instead I'm sharing the amazing podcasts created by the students in my Leadership for Sport Professionals class. In this first bonus episode of Season 5, I'm sharing "Beyond the Scoreboard" which was created and produced by Carmen Kennett, Brody Grieb, and Cam Smith. Here are their liner notes: In the premier of the first season of Beyond The Scoreboard, we were lucky enough to spend 25 minutes speaking with Drew Bledsoe, the first overall draft pick of the 1993 NFL draft and 2002 Super Bowl champion. Drew's leadership both on and off the field has left a lasting impact on many people worldwide. Alongside his wife Maura, Drew is also an entrepreneur as he now spends most of his time managing his company, Doubleback winery. Drew spends time telling us a bit about what it was like to be a young man charged with the task of leading an NFL team and the difficulties he faced when forced to sign with other teams. Pay attention as he continuously relates his experience as a leader in the NFL to his experience as a leader in the business world. We introduce Drew to chapter 12 and chapter 13 of Peter G. Northouse's Leadership, which discusses the ideas of inclusive leadership and the importance of followership. Listen as Drew tells us a couple of personal experiences that relate exactly to those topics, and the importance that those experiences were throughout the remainder of his career. He spends time talking about the importance of diversity amongst a team, the value in proving your worthiness through work ethic, and how the best thing an aspiring leader can do is find influential mentors. You can reach Drew at @DrewBledsoe via X, and @drewbledsoe via Instagram. Doubleback winery can be found at Music used in this episode of Beyond the Scoreboard comes from Free Music Archive!
