Talk Less, Listen More | John Redman

from JAMODI Podcast Hosted by JAMODI Podcast

John Redman, Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Spring Hill College, joins the JAMODI Podcast for a conversation about leadership, confidence, relationships, simplicity, and what it really means to coach a team. After spending nearly 15 years as a college assistant and learning under multiple Hall of Fame coaches, Redman has developed a coaching philosophy centered around serving players, building trust, giving freedom, embracing failure, and keeping the game simple. Coach Redman explains why he believes a coach’s No. 1 job is to build confidence, why “culture” ultimately comes down to people, and why the only word he wants hanging in his locker room is SERVE. We also dive into: 🏀 Why great coaches are great teachers and learners🏀 Time → Trust → Freedom🏀 Why coaches should “talk less” during games🏀 Letting players solve problems during timeouts🏀 Why failure is necessary for growth🏀 Coaching players vs. coaching a TEAM🏀 Why fewer rules and higher standards can work🏀 The importance of adapting as a coach🏀 Why “less is more” with X’s and O’s🏀 Building genuine relationships with players🏀 Why ugly practices can produce winning teams🏀 Playing more 5-on-5 in practice🏀 Handling losses without riding your emotions🏀 Why service is at the center of Redman’s program Coach Redman also shares the philosophy behind his “30 Second Timeout” videos and why he continues to share lessons on coaching, leadership, and life. 🎙️ JAMODI PodcastJust A Matter Of Doing It.
