A leader is someone who puts their people in position to be successful all the time

When you are speaking to your team after a game, never talk about the kid who was the star of the game. Talk about what your other players did to help the team win. Be sure to spread the wealth... Then have individual meetings with one to three players to praise and reinforce. Make sure you touch them.

The truth is that many people set rules to keep from making decisions. Not me. I don't want to be a manager or a dictator. I want to be a leader-and leadership is ongoing, adjustable, flexible, and dynamic. As such, leaders have to maintain a certain amount of discretion

To me, teamwork is the beauty of our sport, where you have five acting as one. You become selfless.

I believe a big part of leadership is about winning the moment.

It's funny what happens when you become a grandparent. You start to act all goofy and do things you never thought you'd do. It's terrific.
