Greg Clink

Championship Culture Architect | Keynote Speaker | Former NCAA Head Coach

A proven leader and championship culture architect who spent 16 seasons as Head Coach of Chico State Men’s Basketball, transforming the program into one of the premier NCAA Division II teams in the nation. His success was not accidental, it was built on clear standards, daily habits, and a culture rooted in accountability, toughness, and unity.

At the heart of Greg’s philosophy are his 10 Core Principles, a framework that shaped how his teams practiced, competed, and carried themselves on and off the court. These principles created an environment where leadership was developed, expectations were elevated, and individuals committed to something greater than themselves.

Today, Greg brings those same battle-tested strategies to organisations and executive teams. His keynotes are practical, motivating, and results-driven, equipping leaders to build strong cultures, elevate performance, and create sustainable success.

What People Say About Greg

Jay Flores

Everyone loves to use the word “culture” but very few people know what it means and even fewer have been lucky enough to experience a championship level culture. In Coach Clink’s program the day to day standard and connection to the something bigger than any one person allows the individuals involved to overachieve. We never talked a lot about championships, but more so the process that goes into becoming a champion. The daily responsibility that I felt to be at my best was a direct reflection of the culture that Coach Clink has established. I know in my heart that if I had gone to any other program I would not have become the player I was or the person I am today.

Glenn C.
