This episode is a conversation with Willis Wilson. I found this to be an inspiring dialogue, filled with powerful insights on the power of activating moments, the difference between a basketball coach and a leader who coaches basketball, and empathy, understanding, and forgiveness.
Willis Wilson is the Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, where he’s entering his 10th season as head coach of the Islanders. His tenure at Corpus Christi features 3, 20-win seasons, and 4 postseason appearances. Coach Wilson was also previously the head coach at Rice University in Houston, TX. He served as the head coach at Rice, his alma mater, for 16 seasons, and is the winningest coach in school history.
Coach Wilson helped to inspire this podcast for me. Through my connection with the Rice basketball family, Coach Wilson and I have shared several powerful conversations such as this one over the past several months. And I couldn’t help but think that others might be able to benefit from conversations such as this as well.
