In this week’s Growth Edge leadership podcast episode, I sit down with a long-time friend and colleague, Blake Lawrence. Blake had a stellar college football career, playing linebacker for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, and after an early retirement due to concussions, he pursued his entrepreneurial passions. He founded and successfully exited his first company, a social media agency, and is the CEO of a second venture, opendorse, the largest provider of technology in the athlete endorsement industry. Opendorse helps athletes earn more than $100MM each year through NIL deals, and about 125k athletes use the platform every day.
Among the key takeaways from our conversation:
- there are numerous styles that result in great coaching
- not all feedback is good feedback
- the best coaches are selfless - their success is your growth and success
- ego can be a big hurdle for people, both as they’re coaching and as they’re being coached
- part of coaching is equipping team members to coach themselves when you’re not around
- in coaching, consistency and repetition matter

In this week’s episode of the Growth Edge leadership podcast, we explore the topic of coachability in entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurs are often perceived as uncoachable; perhaps because they’re highly visionary, independent, driven, and resolute in their conviction that an idea has viability. To survive the start up journey and build a product or company requires confidence, courage, wise counsel, and high coachability.
Listen in to learn more!
In this week's episode, we explore 12 attributes of highly coachable leaders, five barriers to coachabilities, and times when we need to double down on practicing or assessing our own coachability.
In this week’s episode, we explore the business case for coachability, and what outcomes are produced when individuals are highly coachable.
Like most anything that’s worthwhile in life, being a coachable leader doesn’t come naturally or easily or comfortably. But, the positive impact that’s achieved by coachable leaders is worth the effort.
When we think about coachability, I think it’s natural for a lot of well-established, successful, intelligent leaders to say “that’s not for me”, because they’re already in a solid or strong position. It’s easy to see that station that they’ve achieved in life as sustainable. But as Jim Collins says, “good is the enemy of great.”
Coahability is about realizing that our continued success requires our being open to learning from others, to confronting uncomfortable truths about ourselves, and to working hard to make necessary behavior changes in order to experience next level performance.
The most successful individuals see themselves as an evolving work in progress.
Coaching and coachability result in four primary outcomes; development, behavior change, performance, and promotability, and secondary positive impacts including improved resilience, well-being, innovation, and collaboration.
Listen in!
