#255: Clark Hunt, Chairman and CEO of the Kansas City Chiefs – Be quick to give others credit

It gets back to to putting other people first. If you're willing to do that, that's going to allow you to break through and people are going to be willing to embrace your vision and do whatever it takes to be successful because they know that you care about them. Well, we did it. We survived another offseason and now football is back. And I have just the guest to help you kick off this year's NFL season.

Welcome to Out Leaders Lead. I'm David Novak and every week I have conversations with the very best leaders in the world to help you become the best leader you can be. My guest today is Clark Hunt, chairman and CEO of the Kansas City Chiefs. Now you don't have to be a big NFL fan to know that no team has dominated the league quite like the Chiefs. They've won the AFC West nine consecutive times.

They've made it to the Super Bowl five out of the last six years, and they've won three of them. So how do they build this kind of dynasty? As a leader, you know, it's really hard to deliver results year after year after year. Today, we're going to go point by point through what I believe are the five key things that every dynasty does, not only to achieve success, but also to repeat it. And as we do, you'll see, when Clark talks about the success he's built, he is constantly giving credit to everyone else around him.
