Kris Robertson is the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Raptors 905 (NBA G-League), Sport Scientist with the Toronto Argonauts (CFL), and former professional football player drafted by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. He breaks down the winning systems used by elite sports organizations and how they translate to business, leadership, and everyday life.
Kris reveals why talent alone never wins championships, how Coach Marc Trestman’s “everyone matters” philosophy drove the 2017 Argonauts to a Grey Cup victory, and why self-awareness separates successful people from everyone else. He explains the specialist vs. generalist problem that creates silos in professional organizations, why over-communication is the championship difference, how understanding your biases makes you a better leader, and why getting comfortable with discomfort is required for growth. This episode delivers a masterclass in building winning cultures, personal accountability, and translating elite performance systems into real-world success.
