The Importance of Good Leaders

Attended my son’s first rugby league match earlier in the year.

What a difference having the right coach makes.

Last year the coach lacked people skills and basically barked commands at the boys… no wonder they didn’t listen and many left the team.

This year is the complete opposite. Trent is playing at a new club and the coach is encouraging, fair and talks to these boys with respect. The contrast is like chalk and cheese. The coach has attracted top players who have been state representatives who have joined. I wonder why?

How often in business do you see poor leaders? The business owner or manager lacks what it takes to lead and coach his or her people. Then they complain their team doesn’t perform and often leave.

Having the right person leading makes all the difference. There’s plenty of lessons to be learned in this week’s article which will ensure you have a highly productive team… providing you are a good coach.
