Episode Summary:
In this episode, Ian Hawkins challenges the widely discussed "No Dickheads" policy in elite sports. He unpacks the real factors that drive success in high-performance teams like the Melbourne Storm and Penrith Panthers—connection, culture, and a strong shared purpose. Ian discusses how these environments foster accountability, growth, and resilience, rather than simply excluding players for past mistakes. He also explores how these principles can be applied to everyday life, helping you build stronger connections and a more meaningful legacy.
