On this episode of The Dougout, Doug continues his conversation with one of the most interesting men in sports — longtime MLB GM and current Pepperdine professor Ned Colletti.

In part 2, Ned breaks down what separates great organizations like the Dodgers from struggling ones like the White Sox and Rockies. He shares what “organizational culture” really means, why leadership matters, and highlights the brilliance of Kim Ng, a true trailblazer and close colleague he’s worked with for years. Plus, Ned reflects on his transition into teaching at Pepperdine. What hasn't he done?!
