In this week’s episode of Building Championship Mindsets, we continue Season 12, Decade of Greatness, with Dr. Amber Selking. Thinking right and understanding the season we are in allows us to contextualize and see moments with a greater perspective. Dr. Selking talks about the power of being able to recognize the season you are in as an organization and being able to make decisions from that awareness.

Dr. Selking also shares how we can evaluate our actions and be in alignment with the season we are currently in.
