About the Author

Evan Burk is an author, speaker, former NFL coach, and podcast host who uses the sports world as his backdrop to engage audiences with thought-provoking lessons of leadership, team-building, and creating championship cultures.

Evan Burk is not your typical football coach. Despite not playing football beyond high school and no network in the coaching profession, Evan's unlikely football journey began as a 4th grade coach, where he quickly worked his way to the NFL in just 6 years, and included coaching for teams such as the Miami Dolphins, UCLA, and SMU. 

After spending fifteen-plus years working with the highest-performing athletes, coaches, and teams on the planet, Coach Burk uses his unique football coaching background to teach people how to utilize the same strategies in business and life that elite players and teams use to perform at a world-class level.

In 2022, Evan Burk released his first book, Finding Intangibles, in which he helps organizations identify the hidden traits that drive elite performers and championship teams. He also hosts his own weekly sports leadership podcast, The Highest Level, where he reveals how championship team cultures are built and the keys to leadership excellence at the highest level.

Praise for Finding Intangibles

Rafal Juc | International Scout - Denver Nuggets

“I just love how practical this book with a number or examples how all of this can be integrated at various levels. It’s super universal. I’ve been looking for books and articles on intangibles for a while, and quite frankly your book is the best one out there when it comes to that stuff. The biggest value in this book, though, to me are all the great quotes that you were able to collect from some top minds in sports.”

Brian Decker | Director of Team Development - Carolina Panthers

“There's no doubt that Evan's thoughts, philosophies, and beliefs are philosophically aligned with what it takes to win in highly competitive environments. The book is extremely digestible. I love the tone and the altitude that it flys at.”
