March Madness

“We were looking for guys you could lose with, and I know that sounds crazy. They’re smart enough to know when they lose, they’re going to get better, and they’ll listen to coaching.”
– Basketball coaching great John Beilein

March Madness is back! To celebrate, we’d like to share some secrets we learned from one of America’s greatest college basketball coaches on how to recruit talent to fuel a high-performing team.

In part 1 of a 2-part series, Advantage CEO Jon Hodge talks with John Beilein, who was one of the greatest basketball coaches in University of Michigan history before leaving that position for the National Basketball Association in 2020. This year, he is sharing insights as a Big Ten Network game analyst, teaching leadership at Michigan, and speaking publicly.

Don’t miss his take on the real indicator of a great teammate, an unforgettable story about John F. Kennedy and a janitor at NASA, and more!

One great thing: Quick and valuable ideas you can watch, listen to, or grab & take with you that can make your day brighter, your work more effective, your job more fun, or your challenges less challenging.
