Joel Goldberg, longtime Kansas City Royals broadcaster and leadership keynote speaker, has interviewed over 1,000 elite athletes and learned one thing: trust beats talent when it comes to building great teams.

Key Leadership Lessons from Joel Goldberg’s Journey:

  • Relationships are your strongest asset.  Winning teams—on the field or in the boardroom—are built on trust, chemistry, and connection, not just raw talent.

  • Storytelling builds credibility.  Data doesn’t move people—stories do. Joel reveals how vulnerability and relatability can be your secret weapons in leadership.

  • Slumps are part of the process.  Even top performers go cold. What matters is how leaders respond—with empathy, clarity, and consistency.
