Some questions we ask Mr. Keenan include:

With the sense of urgency to win, how were you able to maximize your team’s successes in the short term and yet, also give them the best chances for success in the long term?

What was your most painful personal setback and what was your most painful professional set back? What did you learn from both experiences and how did both experiences permanently change your perception on life & coaching?

Most people fail. Most people never fulfill their potential and even fewer people than that become legends in their own time. Do you think a champion mindset is actually mental disorder? Do you think that it is strange to believe & know that you can achieve the unachievable when so many are willing to embrace mediocrity?
