The Ted Lasso Effect: Stamping Out Hazing in Athletics and Building Strong Team Culture

April 25, 2023

You've at least heard of Ted Lasso, right? On the Apple TV show, a successful American football coach looks to turn around a failing British football club armed with optimism and biscuits.


While Ted Lasso is a (wonderful) fictional character, there's a lot to be learned from his example. On this episode of RadioEd, Matt sits down with Brian Gearity from DU's Graduate School of Professional Psychology, where he runs the Master of Sport Coaching program, to discuss the finer points of coaching, culture and team building in a world where hazing scandals are still a regular occurrence.
