I think coaching is confused at times as being an arrow that only goes to a player. Those players send arrows back to you, and thatโs where a relationship is developed. I donโt make a player, and a player doesnโt make me a coach. We make each other.

Mike KrzyzewskiIn putting together your standards, remember that it is essential to involve your entire team. Standards are not rules issued by the boss; they are a collective identity. Remember, standards are the things that you do all the time and the things for which you hold one another accountable.
