Listen "Know Your Role"
Episode Synopsis
What makes a team truly unstoppable? In this episode, we dig into a simple but powerful truth: great teams win because everyone knows their role—and they own it. It’s a lesson that showed up early in my life, long before leadership books or boardrooms, back when I was a 13-year-old softball player stepping into a Corpus Christi tournament with a sister team that needed a second baseman. What happened that weekend wasn’t just about slap bunts, speed, or strategy. It was about alignment. Trust. Responsibility. And what becomes possible when each person shows up and does exactly what they’re there to do.From the softball field to the workplace to your own family, roles create rhythm. They create momentum. And when everyone commits to their role—not to the credit, not to the spotlight, but to the mission—teams don’t just perform. They thrive.💡 What You’ll Learn: • Why clearly defined roles are the engine of high-performing teams • How small, consistent actions compound into big wins • What sports strategy can teach us about teamwork, trust, and execution • Why doing your job is sometimes the most generous act a teammate can offer • Questions that help you identify (and own) your role in any area of life🛠️ Action Step: Ask yourself: “Do I know my role?” and “Am I doing it with intention, discipline, and trust in the people around me?” Use your answers to clarify what you bring to your team—and how you can elevate it.📌 Perfect For: • Team leaders and coaches • Professionals navigating collaboration and shared goals • Young athletes and parents • Anyone who wants to shift from individual effort to collective successBecause when everyone knows their role and shows up for the bigger picture, something remarkable happens: the team wins.
