Steve Kerr on leadership, Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, Michael Jordan & MORE | Lead by Example

- Warriors head coach Steve Kerr has seen everything during his basketball career. From barely being recruited out of high school, to winning five rings as a player alongside Michael Jordan and Tim Duncan, to four more at the helm of Golden State’s dynasty, his path has certainly been unlikely. When asked what his late father would’ve said about his journey, Kerr says, “He wouldn’t believe it.” In the season finale of Lead by Example, Kerr and Warriors President Bob Myers sit down for an unprecedented conversation on Kerr’s career, values and regrets. Kerr discusses choosing the Warriors over the Knicks and his mentor Phil Jackson, his favorite thing about Steph Curry, the ups and downs of coaching Kevin Durant, and the reason for Golden State’s success.

Man played with MJ and Tim Duncan and coached Curry and KD while going up against LeBron more than anyone else. What a legendary figure in basketball.
dont forget he was also coached by Phil Jackson and pop...dude has seen every possible angle on the winning side
Don’t forget coaches by Phil and Pop
Kd left cuz of him wey
@@alexhitter5992 KD is a great player but doesn’t have that tiny bit more. You can feel it when he talks or see it in his eyes, he’s missing a tiny bit of something. Kerr puts it on his back as a player Curry can put it on his back. KD is missing that.
@@garyjohn1956 why Kevin Durant is a great player and wellbeing a hall-of-famer Kevin Durant is no dog like MJ or LeBron James! he is not a leader also he didn't like Steve Kerr because Steve Kerr would not play complaint isoball!
Steve Kerr has 8/9 years coaching with 6 Finals appearances and 4 rings. Coach of the decade✔️
his nba career he has 9 championships total which is wild
legendary life
For real, the way his players talk about him, his coaching staff, the front office.. The guy is truly underrated. Being head coach is a very difficult and demanding job. Steve doesn't just do the bare minimum he created a shift in the culture and the way coaching is done. The system he implemented and how he organizes the day to day goes unnoticed by the casual fan. The guy truly deserves coach of the last 10 years.
當keer拿到第11個冠軍戒指，
希望他一只帶在手指上！
把1O冠軍戒指做成項鍊！👍😅
People might want to go against that at first glance, but it's not even close. Like you said: less that 10 years of coaching and he's coached a dynasty. 6 Finals appearances and 4 (coulda been 5) rings. You can count on one hand how many coaches have that resume in 1 decade (Red and Phil. That's it)
This interview is so much better than the average ESPN show.
It really is.
Nah, first take is fun
@@dunkirito8308 It was fun when it was Skip & Stephen A
ESPN has gone waaaaaay downhill. It’s all about drama and no real analysis.
And First Take has always been trash. Worse now more than it’s ever been. Just a bunch of grown men screaming at each other about their opinions and hypotheticals.
This is part of why the Dubs are successful. The relationship between the front office and coaches. They’re the definition of team. The old school Dubs fans know it’s never been like this. I hope Bob re-ups and they keep this going.
Plus between the FO and the players - Bob Myers literally went down to the bench and calmed Draymond down in that Pelicans game, I've never seen that on any other team.
Casual 💯🤷♂️
I fear Warrior life after Bob Myers and Steph Curry tbh. Don't wanna go back to them memorable days with such stars as Chris Gattling, Bimbo Coles, Spree choking Coach Carlissimo. Fun times. But we did have Nellie and those wild run and gun teams with no defense at all.
man, if we do get a new GM when/if bob leaves, i hope it's a former player that's been around as many experiences as kerr.
@@whydopeoplealwayssayuhmI'm worried his contract is going to end. Fingers crossed we pay him what he's worth. He should be the highest paid g.m in the league. He has the most succeed among many many other reasons he deserves it.
Player, GM, Broadcaster (miss him in 2K) and head coach, this man has done it all in the NBA.
Literally if I had a choice be a star player for five years or a historic role player who evolves into all roles of the game I’m def taking the role playing route. I don’t know just seems more fulfilling and it seems like he keeps the same passion he’s had for the game since he was in college. Beautiful career
time to be an owner of a team
@@rayt8534 I believe he did that on a smaller scale with Phoenix. He had shares in the Suns when he was GM. When he accepted the Warriors HC job, the Suns bought him out. Of course, he couldn’t maintain ownership interest in a team he’d be coaching against.
He was technically past owner of the suns too lol
He needs to become a ref now
The documentary on this Warriors Dynasty will be the greatest doc ever
Ppl are ready for it. I’ll give it 3-4 years. I think they get 2 more chips unless they decide they’re done.
Facts
that draymond punch will be immortalized if they go on to win the championship
💍💍💍💍💍... With Coach Kerr getting his 10th ring. Crazy. Fingers crossed.
These two are the definition of class, humility and just all around great men.
Steve seems like a very genuine, morally sound stand up classy guy, I wish we had more people like him in the world, we need it
This man doesn’t get the credit or respect he deserves. An absolute rock of a human being. 🙌🏽
So insightful, no matter what you do in life you can learn something from this interview.
Yes hes a inspiration 100% ❤
Yes!!! ❤ so much in this interview for management and leadership position and teamwork. Life work balance and people relationships. So awesome.
Facts.
the humility of these two incredibly successful and brilliant men is remarkable. no need to look far into why they're so successful. We are so incredibly lucky and grateful to have these two represent the Warriors and the Bay on a whole
Their emotional intelligence is off the charts, what a great organization
Anytime I see a Steve Kerr interview I stop whatever I’m doing and hitting this video immediately
The Warriors success is not accidental, there’s a blueprint to it; with Bob and Coach Kerr at the very core of it.
I have ADHD and I’m 17mins in and I’m shock how good this was and learning so much! I’m gonna do my best and I’m most likely gonna finish this. GO DUBS!
(Edited) I FINISHED IT!!! That just show how good this was! Huge props to Bob and Kerr! Oakland LOVE YOU!
Nice!!!
So do I, and I've been meditating on that balance between being loose vs being disciplined that Kerr talks about at 15:45 . I feel we thrive in chaos like the Warriors do, staying loose and not forcing structure. Thoughts?
Immediately I started watching, I knew I had finished this. I stopped to eat, watched over 20 performances in-between including Beyonce's tribe to Steve Wonder... but I got to finish in one day. Wonderful interview
I would be interested in Bob's story. Taking the position and being so successful and maintaining his humanity as a General Manager. He seems to be the one in a million type. So good at relationships, and who else would think it important to give us such intimate looks into the basketball backroom...LOVED IT!
It’s no wonder that the Warriors are having the success they are enjoying, these 2 lead without ego and are eager to celebrate the success of their players and others. So many people are quick to blame Steve when they lose games or if players like Wiseman are traded, it’s easy to coach from the couch but try doing it for real and see how you fare. Steve and Bob are rare gems just like Steph, Klay, Dray and Iggy, it’s a privilege to witness their era in bb.
Myers’s+Kerr+Curry+Thompson+Green+Iggy=INSPIRATIONAL
And Loon
I really appreciate Kerr's response at 32:49 about his intentional humility in coaching, despite being on the winning or losing side of a game. This is a lesson we can all take and use in our day to day lives.
Steve Kerr is the driving force behind the Dubs' success, often eclipsed by the exceptional skills displayed by Curry. His leadership and strategic mind are invaluable to the organization.
Really love Kerr talk.
Insightful and knows how to crack jokes from time to time.
My favorite clip of him is when he saved Jordan in 97. *_He hit the shot, that's his story, and im also sticking to it._* 😄😄
Even if Steve Kerr wasn't the head coach of my favorite team he would still be my favorite and all time great head coach. Great human.
This makes no sense
@@andrephillips7764 hard for an uneducated mf to comprehend. Read more foo
As a life long Warriors fan, I am thankful we have these two guys. They obviously get along great and respect each other. Let's keep it going!
One of the greatest GM & Coach duo!! Bob has done a tremendous job of managing the Warriors organization & coach Kerr has cemented himself as a pioneer of small ball & position less basketball. Since 2014, the NBA landscape has changed dramatically due to the dominance of the Warriors. The Warriors have demoralized & destroyed teams from the inside out. Many teams have been blown up to rebuild in order to compete or stop the Warriors. So far nothing but injuries seems to be the only Warriors show stopper because no team has been proven to beat the Warriors big4 in a 7 game series. Go Warriors!!
Steve Kerr’s humility always stands out, he’s a genuinely good guy!!
This is a surprisingly deep and mature talk about leadership that I wasn't expecting. Thanks for this amazing content.
We need more people like Coach Kerr in this world. Joy, competitive, mindfulness and compassion. These are incredible core values for everyone to live by.
great interview. humanity is so important in these times and these two portrait that
This is what is all about. On the peak of each individual and as a team, they do not forget their humanity. What a great conversation, between this two. I can see GM is a real genuine and he values humanity above all.
This was an awesome interview! I enjoy watching Bob and Steve interviews because they are always genuine, passionate, and humble when they speak.
Great podcast, interview, and insight Bob. Coach Kerr’s dad sure must be proud. Prayers for Wiggs’ dad
I think we're at that stage when the band breaks up but we'll do it with class, dignity and style..Respect to these two great human beings..Go Dubs!
Interesting comment Bob made about feeling powerless as a GM on the road because recently he had that moment with Draymond when Dray almost got his 2nd tech the other night in a game that the warriors needed bad. Forgot who they were playing but he really helped calm Dray down and kept him focused on the bigger picture.
A talented coach makes every difference in the world for players. Sometimes I wonder how many guys would’ve been stars with the right coach. Coach Kerr is legendary.
Love when he talks about winning or losing and being gracious and respectful either way. Amazing!
Bruh i can listen to bob talk for ever 👌🏾. Great dude extremely knowledgeable
Agreed. The way he articulates his thoughts is 💯. Watching that press conference with Wiggs yesterday was a little bit cringe. Sigh of relief when he started talking again. Lol.
Great interview! Love seeing the chemistry between these guys! It’s really genuine. No wonder why they’ve shared so much success! 🏀🔥
Both these men seem like Good men, like Uncles to their players. I wish I grew up with a bunch of Uncles like this.
This was an amazing interview. Loved this series that Bob did.
I need Bob to interview everyone. Everyone's got a podcast and they all ask the same questions. Upbringing, origin story, popular moments, off court moves, etc... Bob is digging into that stuff that's actually interesting. It feels like I'm watching a real conversation, not like a I'm listening to a wiki page.
They are a joy to watch and to learn from.
This interview was delightful to listen to. Thanks Bob and coach Kerr. Go Dubs!
Great interview !! Ive learned a lot about Steve Kerr and his journey from several interviews and UA-cam documentaries
What an incredible talk. Genuine and heart felt conversations, great content about leadership and people management, the importance of values. Kerr is truly an inspiring and authentic person.
This was such an insightful, educational, and interesting interview to watch. Whether each stays with the organization or not, it sounds like a place where their choices will be respected and not judged.
So many jewels on leadership in this dialogue btwn two colleagues/champs!
Thank you for interview. I needed it.. my soul needed it.. my leadership skills needed it. I never Myers was such a great interviewer.. he asks such great questiobs. And I love how such successful men.. leader of men seem so humble and keep their ego in check.
I enjoyed this!! Good interview and great insight into Steve Kerr. His respect for Steph is undeniable.
Very knowledgeable insights from both!
Steve Kerr has all the best experiences, Played with the GOAT, Coached by some of the best Phil Jackson, Popavich, Mulitple rings, now heading up a dynasty of his own with another all time Great Steph. Wow, not bad for a dude out of Arizona.
Steve Kerr needs his own movie....he's had an amazing career as a player and coach..
what an amazing interview! when i started it, i thought no way am i gonna sit thru an hour no matter how much i love steve kerr or the dubs, but i played it on 1.5x and it flew by! steve is a gem and the way he deflects all praise and kudos to steph and the team is a lesson in humility!
Steve Kerr is such a good listener.
This is such great treat. I felt like I went to a retreat. Life coach, values, insights and humanity. I just shared Coach Kerr’s values - competitiveness, mindfulness, compassion and joy, to my son whose coaching a University Women’s Volleyball club. Thank you for seeing Steph Curry as the center piece of the Warriors’ organization. He brings joy to everyone.
How can you not love this team! They did bring us a lot of joy to watch them play!
What an amazing interview.
i love them all :) this is such a nice conversation :)
Thanks for that. You guys are awesome.
As a life-long sports fan, rooting for many cities' teams of all breeds, my favorite sports team of ALL time has been the Golden State Warriors of fhe Steph Curry-Steve Kerr era. Thank you😃
It’s actually crazy how little time he has coached. You would think he’s been coaching 15 years. But 9 years of coaching with 4 championships and 6 total playoff appearances is wild.
Finals appearances* I feel like that’s what you meant to put. Wild though for real..
Same thing. Under Kerr they went to the finals with every playoff appearance
Dope interview! This is the most vulnerable I’ve ever seen Steve Kerr
It's true! Thank you fir the joy. You gentlemen have brought to my life!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Wow! Such great conversation!
I totally enjoyed watching your interview.
Wow, I got so much from this interview especially about knowing what values drive me and building culture
Great interview! I learned much qnd took notes.
Enjoyed watching two buddies talk. A feels like the end is near also.
this was such a honest, insightful, and educational conversation based on the perspective of an NBA Legend, Steve Kerr, Thank you for being an awesome coach and even better human being. Now lets go repeat as NBA Champs 2023!
Wow. I would have paid good money to watch this "TED talk". What an insight into the mind of Coach Kerr and GM Bob. Them speaking in the context of what they have both achieved in the NBA is invaluable. These 2 will go down as one of the greatest GM and coach pairings ever. So much value and life lessons in this interview. Don't miss this one!
Excellent. I will recommend this interview to everyone.
they need to pay bob Myers
We’re so fortunate to have these guys. Thank you for the good times and many more to come! Inshallah
This is so awesome for people in managing and leadership. It’s cover every aspect of everything. Wowowowow 👏👍🙌🙏💗🌸
Steve Kerr is a role model in terms of how he approaches everything in life. A great man.
Thank you sir for that last answer to the last question ! Much respect and you made me wish i could call my dad and say thank you but he has left us .I hated you as a knick Fan but i admire you for few years now .😊
Great interview!
Coach Kerr is the best❤❤❤
Good show Bob, I watch steph from baby, because I watch his father, I watch steph at college, I don't go to bed until steph play, I am 80 years old, I want to see what steph do with him life..
WOW!!!
great show. a lot of inspirations from Steve.
What a great culture to have established. It's sustained by more authentic selves of the Bob, Steve and Steph who really walk the talk (vs those with big egos and superstar-like status). You don't get that with GSW. It's beautiful to watch such a culture flourish and permeate their work. A great interview.
I’m so proud to be a Warriors fan, they have a special thing going
Steve Kerr became a great and effective leader because he is willing to learn and listen to others. He is one of the smartest and most humble player and now coach that I have ever witnessed in my lifetime. With all his success and accomplishments, he never allowed it to get into his head.
Kudos to you Steve! Despite your unlikely journey, you deserve all the milestones you have reached. Hopefully there is a lot more in store in the future. Thank you for being a good man and a good example to everyone!
Much respect to Steve, aside from basketball, seems like great humanbeing and role-model
What a great interview.
Steve will never see this and Bob probably won’t either, but one never knows. Basically, thank you both…for what you describe as the joy you’ve given me and all of us sports fans who have a bit of the Bay Area in us. But, also for who you undoubtedly are, for what is so easy to see in your intelligence and humanity. And ego. The healthy ego that can dream and lead and imagine yourselves as large and empowered without ever believing you’re better or that it’s even about you. Simply put, we are all connected and we should aspire to all simply serve in the manner that we can. Thank you, again.
What an amazing interview
oh this is so good
wow so good this interview
love to hear them talk~
Great coach and friend. Loves his team ❤
Amazing interview.! 👏🏽
Simply great men.
an insightful interview
Awesome!!!
Great podcast
What a class act. I would LOVE to work for/with him.
Can’t believe I finished this video! Lots of learnings…
The response to then question at @10:45. Dang. Such a humble answer. If Steph was asked this his reply would not be what Kerr said and that’s a part of why it’s worked so well; no ego.
Two really terrific men!
I didn't realize it until now but this guy's voice is engrained in my childhood from NBA LIVE games
So good.
Big 3 and Steve Kerr💯💯💯
@callmecatalyst yep this team is a team
