👉 Ep. 445: How Coaching Competency Unlocks Team Culture

When things aren't going right, most coaches ask the wrong question. They jump straight to "is this a culture problem?" without asking whether they've actually taught their players well.

In this episode, Tyler and Mark sit down with JP Nerbun (Coaching Culture Podcast) to tackle one of the most honest questions in coaching: "How do you know if losing is a people problem, a teaching problem, or just a timeline problem?"

This conversation goes deep on why coaching and culture aren't two separate things, how to use constraints to grow as a coach, what it actually looks like to get better between seasons, and why enforcing your standards now will pay off more than you think.

If you coach high school, youth, or college basketball and want to think more clearly about what's actually costing you wins -- this one's for you.
