Head Coach Scott Drew shares lessons for investing in others and creating a successful organization through J.O.Y. – Jesus, Others, Yourself

Head Coach and author SCOTT DREW brings a unique and meaningful perspective to building a winning organization – one of JOY. For Drew and the Baylor team, that’s “Jesus, Others, and Yourself.” Coach Drew carries this message of J.O.Y. both on and off the court, saying “God loves us whether we win or lose.” This is part of the culture he’s built at Baylor, where he has led what is widely considered the greatest rebuild in college basketball history, building his team to its first NCAA championship and the first Big 12 title in the school’s history. But despite huge accomplishments, Drew shares in Christian Post: “through it all, maintaining an attitude of servanthood and leadership will always take priority.”

Drew is also the author of The Road to J.O.Y.: Leading with Faith, Playing with Purpose, Leaving a Legacy, an impactful exploration of the Biblical principles he relies on during challenging times, as well as the Coach’s lessons for investing in others and creating a successful organization. When many-time Coach of the Year joined Sports Spectrum Podcast for a conversation about what he’s learned through both victories and defeats, it became one of their Best of 2022. As Drew shares in media appearances, in his book, and in speaking engagements, “we have to make a difference and be a positive influence.”
