C-10 Mentoring & Leadership Podcast

Dan O'Dell and his wife Maria run one of the most successful residential real estate groups in the Kansas City area, Group O'Dell. Although they've been supporters of "C" You In The Major Leagues, we invited Dan to join us for this episode because he's a great encourager and mentor to other leaders. His daily focus is to encourage those around him.

Ironically, we first met Dan O'Dell when he invited CYITML founder Dayton Moore to speak at a leadership breakfast that they host each year.

Some notes:
-- You can find more about Group O'Dell at their website.
-- We talk about the book, "Acres of Diamonds." Here is an Amazon link to that book.
-- Dan mentions Brian Buffini. His podcast can be found at TheBrianBuffiniShow.com.
-- If you have comments or suggestions for a future guest, you can contact us here.

On this week's episode, we chat with Royals broadcaster -- and Kansas City native -- Steve Physioc about broadcasting for his hometown team, how he got into broadcasting, leadership lessons he's learned from great managers and coaches such as Sparky Anderson and John Wooden, and what's his perfect "Super Soul Sunday."

This interview was recorded in February 2020 at The Otten on Main in front of our C-10 Mentoring & Leadership students and mentors.

This week we sit down during a break at our sixth annual baseball camp at the Jewish Community Center with Gene Watson, the Kansas City Royals' Director of Pro Scouting. Gene takes a swing at our "7 Questions" before talking about what he's learned about leadership from Dayton Moore, how the most pivotal trade for the Royals' 2014 and '15 postseason runs came to be, and the importance of mentoring.

Some notes:
-- We mention the book, "More Than A Season." You can order signed and unsigned hardcover copies directly through the foundation here: https://cyouinthemajorleagues.org/shop-online/.

-- If you'd like to make a difference for students and families in crisis with a one-time gift or, like Gene and his wife Melanie, on a monthly basis, please click here: https://give.idonate.com/the-signatry-foundation/the-c-you-in-the-major-leagues-fund.

-- If you know someone who'd be good to talk about leadership and/or mentoring, or you have other comments, please let us know here: https://cyouinthemajorleagues.org/contact/.

Kathy Nelson is perhaps the most influential person in the overall landscape of sports in Kansas City. Kathy spent several years in the media with Fox4 and Time Warner Cable/Metro Sports, before joining the Kansas City Sports Commission in August of 2010 as the Director of Win for KC. She became the Sports Commission’s President/CEO in November of 2011.

Kathy's involved with countless boards throughout the city and has won numerous awards locally and nationally, from Emmys to the Dancing with the Kansas City Stars grand champion. The list goes on and on.

Besides hearing from Kathy, longtime Fox4 sports anchor and C-10 mentor Al Wallace joins us as co-host, along with one of our C-10 students, Carmen.
