Leadership Lessons from Rocky

Richard Lummis and I are back to look at leadership lessons from one of the very all-time boxing movies, Rocky. Highlights of this podcast include:

  1. What are our favorites scenes from the movie? No one knows anything; you owe yourself, get the work done, and we are all underdogs.
  2. What are the leadership lessons from Rocky Balboa? Repetition will make you great; tech can be a great business advantage but never forget the human element and practice for the worst.
  3. What are the leadership lessons from Apollo Creed? The mind is the greatest muscle; pay attention to those behind you.
  4. What are the leadership lessons from Rocky’s trainer Mick?
  5. What is the leadership lesson from the boxing ring? Go the distance and think long term; it’s not about how hard you punch but how hard a punch you can take and go back into the ring when it’s the toughest.
  6. Do these lessons hold up today?
