If you are like most people, you don’t often think about bad leaders unless you had or currently have one. However, studying or experiencing them can be a more effective teacher than learning from some great ones.   Take former Enron CEO Jeff Skilling as an example. His management and leadership style was built on the foundation of fear....

    Courtesy of "Building the Best" Weekly Newsletter The following is from May 27, 2021 by John Eades: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-top-skills-make-great-leader-john-eades/?trk=eml-email_series_follow_newsletter_01-hero-1-title_link&midToken=AQGgWYn8AI_qww&fromEmail=fromEmail&ut=2Les0hDZ08G9M1 Skill development is a never-ending process.

Merriam Webster defines a skill as “the ability to use one's knowledge effectively and readily in execution or performance.” Skills are often divided into domain-general and domain-specific. For example, golf is a...

    The answer doesn't have to be in your head; you can look outside yourself. If you're truly looking at things objectively, you must recognize that the probability of you always having the best answer is small and that, even if you have it, you can’t be confident that you do before others test you. So it is invaluable to know what you don't know. Ask yourself: Am I seeing this just through my own eyes? If so,...

    The following article is from Robert Glazer from Friday October 23, 2020. I thought that it was appropriate given some of the challenges as coaches that we all face today with some of our young athletes and the changes in culture that we all will be facing going forward when we resume play in 2021.
