Mat Ishbia | Success is a Team Game | Wisdom Series: Part 3

As a player on the elite Michigan State University basketball team, Mat Ishbia learned firsthand how great teamwork brought in the wins—and TWO back-to-back National Championships! Now, he’s brought that same mentality to United Wholesale Mortgage (UWM) as the CEO and President.

For part three of his donothing Wisdom Series, Mat Ishbia and I talk about why teamwork is everything at a successful company. Hear his advice on building and supporting a business where employees and leaders thrive by working together.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why accountability is crucial to being a team player

  • How to create a supportive culture

  • What Mat looks for while hiring new team members

  • Why everyone can be a leader at their company

  • How leaders can develop new leaders

  • What it means to “coach people up”

  • Why UWM are more than friends—they’re family

  • How to get a win every day

  • Why we need to embrace the underdog

  • The importance of being true to who you are as a team player

  • Why we need to embrace the journey no matter where it leads

  • And so much more!
