@1QLeadership Question: Are there measurable metrics beyond revenue that lead to championships in college athletics? George Mason AD Marvin Lewis shares how he walked into a department hungry for leadership and, in three years, built a people-first, championship culture grounded in a clear strategic "playbook." He breaks down the staff survey that set the tone, the shift from bad‑news‑only meetings to high‑energy all‑staffs, and a revised coach evaluation model that finally matches expectations to resources and values more than just wins and losses. Lewis also explains how he uses a senior deputy AD/COO, quarterly "time and score" metrics, and a campus‑wide approach to strategic planning - plus his work on the NCAA Women's Basketball Committee and the Professional Patriots leadership program - to offer a ready-made blueprint for aspiring Division I ADs. - One Question Leadership Podcast - Tai M.
