In this episode of Rise and Grind, host Thurl Bailey sits down with Mark Gottfried—a true veteran of the game who has spent a lifetime mastering the art of high-stakes performance. From his roots in Ohio to his illustrious career as an 11-time NCAA Tournament head coach at powerhouses like Alabama and NC State, Mark has navigated the immense pressures of elite basketball and emerged as a master of team culture.
But Mark’s journey didn’t stop when he left the sidelines. Today, he’s a Performance Strategist, a sought-after corporate speaker, and the author of the new book, “Get It Done: The Playbook for Leading with Grit, Integrity, and Desire.”
