Four ways a leader can be a more effective coach.
“All coaching is, is taking a player where he can’t take himself.” Bill McCartney, American Football
Athletic coaches don’t get in the game by jumping on the field or on the court. They lean in by coaching and providing feedback more frequently. They find ways to connect with their players at a different level, getting into their mindset, using that player’s specific language of motivation, being direct about the lack of execution and then, being clear on how they can get back on track quickly. Finally, they reinforce their confidence in the player’s ability to get back in the game quickly.
Applicable to business, a leader’s ability to channel their inner coach and lean into the game (not get in the game in the role of a player), lean into the strategy, lean into where the execution happens is THE game changer.

We have to be great at maximizing execution by being great at coaching the coach. We have to change the game.
