His clear, resonant baritone makes his stories relevant and his voice alternately hardens when the team needs discipline, and softens when they’ve lost a tough one. But every now and then, a new recruit will ask me to promise that he'll be a starter or that he'll get a certain amount of playing time each game. It meant building an emotional bond of trust that gives his players the confidence and freedom to succeed both on and off the court.

Even though the preseason begins around the first of September, it's really like springtime-time for the birth of a new team. Coach K will provide inspiration for the toughest of moments, and how to execute a comeback under pressure. While the "tips" and learning aspects were very good and our Scrum Master network focused our conversations around these topics, I often found myself wondering if Coach K had written this book to address critics. Im from LA so there I was more into Phil Jackson, now if you like self-help or motivational speakers this is the book for you. If it happens, you're going to be punished severely by the school-and I'll support that punishment, whatever it is.In other words, if we know when your paper is due, we can remind you so you're not waiting until the last minute. Says Coach K, "There are five fundamental qualities that make every team great: communication, trust, collective responsibility, caring and pride. the worse the crisis, the more people will tend to think as individual rather than as members of a team. That kind of support system-the family kind of support system-is like getting a shot to keep away jealousy.

And when I got to the house, my mom would be waiting up-not to check on me, but to talk to me a little bit.Of possible interest, a book on strategy that surveys Coach K as well as 86 other master strategists and a book on the importance of character to see one’s strategy succeed: Strategic Advantage: How to Win in War, Business, and Life and George Washington's Liberty Key: Mount Vernon's Bastille Key - the Mystery and Magic of Its Body, Mind, and Soul, a best-seller at George Washington’s Mount Vernon. In the book, Coach K talks about using your time wisely, and not wasting it doing things that are going to hurt you, and also the team. We usually have the initial meeting in our locker room because it's where we're going to be for many intimate moments in the future. Another useful insight is his view on determining what constitutes to be successful - that it should be something personal and never something dictated entirely by external factors.

I was disappointed because there was not much to separate this book from any other leadership book written by a coach. He has received five National Coach of the Year Awards—and many of the players he coached in college have gone on to NBA stardom. They just put you in a box and, sooner or later, a rule-happy leader will wind up in a situation where he wants to use some discretion but is forced to go along with some decree that he himself has concocted. They also give on the court and off the court advice to inspiring coaches or future players as well as current players or coaches who want advice. That's because each year brings with it a new team, with new people who have different personalities and different skills.

It just seems like a team should still be able to perform better than that if the head coach misses games. Time Management At the first meeting, we pass out notebooks and pocket calendars containing a variety of logistical items. His trilogy on American leadership (The Founding Fathers on Leadership, Lincoln on Leadership, Martin Luther King, Jr. LEADING WITH THE HEART chronicles Coach K’s background in a Polish Chicago neighborhood, where he was guided by parents who demanded honesty and integrity. even if you don't like Coach K or the Duke Blue Devils, after reading this book I think you can at least respect the man and have some admiration for his coaching style.
