This week Andrew welcomes Fordham University Men’s Basketball Head Coach Keith Urgo back to the show. In his first year as a head coach, Keith led Fordham to its best season in over 30 years and was named the 2023 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year. Under Keith’s leadership, Fordham’s historic Rose Hill arena went from an often quiet, near-empty building to a packed house — with ticket lines snaking around campus & one of the loudest, most passionate student sections in the US. In this conversation, you’ll hear actionable lessons to help you grow as a leader, focus on what you can control, energize communities around a common cause, & so much more. This episode will help you transform the organizations, teams, & communities you love into the very best versions of themselves.
