Turns out… a lot more than you think.
In this episode, Denny sits down with Charles “Chuck” Merriman, CCM.
TRhe politically wired, quick-witted COO of San Diego Country Club whose journey from congressional campaign manager to club executive is anything but ordinary.
Chuck shares how his deep roots in politics shaped his leadership style, how civic involvement helped reopen his club during COVID, and why every club leader should build relationships in their local government before they need something.
We dive into:
- The surprising parallels between campaign strategy and club management
- How to deal with tough members, tougher boards, and Twitter trolls
- The real secret to persuasion, power, and protecting your club’s reputation
- Chuck’s proudest wins, hardest losses, and the leadership lessons in between
