#0042 - Beyond Stadium Status with John Brubaker

Author: Jon S. Rennie October 10, 2020 Duration: 55:37
Have you ever heard of the term, “Stadium Status?” It signifies that someone has reached such a large audience of followers that their fans can fill an entire stadium. Think of bands like the Rolling Stones, athletes like Michael Jordan, or actors like the Rock. It represents the top of the game. Businesses and individuals can reach this level too. My guest today is John Brubaker, also known as Coach Bru. John is a former college lacrosse coach turned author, speaker, and business coach. John speaks and writes on leadership and business issues. I have been a long-time fan of his “out of the box” thinking when it comes to growing businesses. He often says that “Weird wins” and he’s right. One idea from his book, “Stadium Status” produced more than $1 million in new business for my company, Peak Demand. He has followed that book up with a sequel called, “Beyond Stadium Status” and I’m excited to have him on the show to discuss how to grow a business to “Stadium Status and Beyond” John Brubaker's Website Stadium Status Book Beyond Stadium Status Book John Brubaker on Twitter _____ Become a leader worth following today with these powerful resources: Purchase my bestselling leadership book "I Have the Watch: Becoming a Leader Worth Following" Subscribe to my leadership newsletter Follow Jon S Rennie on Twitter Follow Jon S Rennie on Instagram Follow Jon S Rennie on YouTube Learn more about your ad choices.

For anyone who’s ever felt that leadership advice can be too theoretical or disconnected from reality, Deep Leadership offers a grounded alternative. Host Jon S. Rennie operates from a simple, powerful belief: “Leadership is a People Business.” This isn’t about abstract concepts; it’s about the tangible, often messy work of guiding teams and organizations. Jon brings a unique perspective shaped by his time as a Cold War Submarine Officer and over two decades leading within Corporate America before founding his own manufacturing company. In each episode, he translates that extensive experience into practical, actionable insights you can apply immediately. The conversations here delve into the core of what makes leadership work-or fail-across business, culture, and society. You’ll hear from Jon and a variety of expert guests as they explore the philosophical and practical dimensions of guiding people, discussing everything from daily management challenges to broader cultural forces that shape how we work. This podcast is built on the conviction that leadership matters profoundly, and that getting it right requires depth, reflection, and a relentless focus on the human element. Tune in for thoughtful discussions that cut through the noise and get to the heart of leading well.
