| 0:00.0 | Welcome to How Leaders Lead. I'm Kula Callahan, here to bring you another edition of three more |
| 0:08.7 | questions with David Novak. David, how you doing today? I'm doing great, Kula. Let's go. Well, today we're |
| 0:14.1 | taking a deeper dive into your conversation with Mike McCoy. He's the area president of Gallagher |
| 0:19.7 | Insurance, and he's the captain of the U.S. |
| 0:22.3 | team at the Walker Cup, which by the time this episode airs, will have just happened. |

| 1:19.1 | but I'll tell you what, he's got a competitive drive and a work ethic that sets him apart. |
| 1:24.2 | Well, that certainly comes through in the episode and definitely go back and give it a listen if you missed it on Thursday. |

| 1:34.4 | So here we go. |
| 1:40.6 | Question number one, David, you're an avid golfer and obviously so is Mike. |
