This video is about six minutes long. You might not think you'll watch the entire thing, but you probably will. Posting it here will lead to a large collective loss of productivity. I'm not sorry.
(There are quite a few versions of this video floating around. This was the original. I saw one the other day that was 15 minutes long. I watched every second of it.)
It seems like every book on culture or leadership or mentoring eventually gets around to Gregg Popovich. He's the coach of the San Antonio Spurs. He has been their coach for almost 30 years straight, which is the longest anyone has coached any professional team (playing anything) in the U.S.
So many leadership books talk about Pop because he's incredibly good at creating culture and getting people to give their best. With the Spurs, he's build a really amazing team that plays basketball differently. The Spurs are wildly collaborative in a sport where it's very easy to over-emphasize one's self.
(Honestly, though, other teams may have emulated the Spurs by now. Maybe they're not unique anymore, but rather just set a trend for decades? I'm not a basketball expert.)
Pop loves his players and his coaches. He thanks them every year for allowing him to coach them. He spends as much time planning what they do away from the court as what they do on it. With few exceptions, his players are incredibly loyal to him and to the team.
"The Culture Code" talks about Pop a lot. So do dozens of other business books. This video gives a nice look into why. This video makes me want to be part of a team.
(In fact, I think I will...)
What do leadership and Bon Jovi have in common?
Turns out, a lot.
I just finished watching the Bon Jovi documentary, "Thank You, Goodnight" on Hulu. As I watched the series, I was struck by how many leadership lessons stood out to me, and how Jon Bon Jovi led through it. Through rapid growth, fame, balancing work and family, making a decision to create his own management company, staying true to their roots and values while adapting to current trends, managing challenges and setbacks- just because it was a rock band, it was still leadership. These are the same themes that arise in executive coaching sessions.
Perhaps the two things that most stood out to me was in the early 90s, 1) how JBJ brought in an equivalent of a team coach/therapist to help the band talk about team dynamics to continue their success and unearth anything unsaid and 2) managing Richie Sambora's sudden departure. How do you manage it publicly as it's unfolding, as well as "staff" it long term?
And of course, the legacy component, as the band is in their 40th year together, and how values show up in enterprises such as JBJ Soul Kitchen.
A drive for excellence, top performance, attention to craft, living into your values, vision, and treating your people well - this, too, translates to our corporate world.
Yes, this girl who had big hair in the late 80s/early 90s and loved her some Bon Jovi learned a whole heck of a lot watching this. And pretty joyful and youth-reliving as well!

everyone wants to be liked and bosses are people too. the workplace is analogous to a family where the kids are charlie brown & lucy and the bosses are “wha-wha-wha-wha”. they are not aware, not feeling, not in the know, and not human.
perhaps the gap between bosses and ourselves is our lack of a shared experience and perspective…. ?
we’d like to hear experiences from those who crossed the divide for the first time from staff to leadership and the realizations you may have gained, OR from seasoned leaders who have had to navigate the conspiracy theories.

Last night I was listening to the Beatles song, Ticket to Ride. It made me smile and sing along, and think of all the talented professionals who won't or can't invest their leadership development. Maybe with all the demands at work and home, it’s just easier to put themselves at the bottom of the priority list? Or maybe their organizations overlook them and despite their hard work and many contributions didn't bother to consider them in the pool of emerging future leaders? What a waste of talent and potential.
