In this episode, The Mentors Radio, Host Dan Hesse talks with Joe Montana, one of the greatest football players in history, a four-time Super Bowl champion.

As Montana famously put it, “Always be prepared to start,” which sums up his approach to life on and off the field. Widely respected by teammates, coaches and colleagues as a phenomenal leader, Montana teaches us how to get the most out of those around us and how to perform under pressure.
