Coaches tell you to, “Be a leader,” but what does that mean?
Leaders influence people to do something. This week, I told my athletes there are 3 types of leaders:
1 - Leaders who lead by example. Do your job with excellence (to the best of your ability) and integrity (the right way, at the right time, and with the right speed).
2 - Leaders who encourage their teammates. Celebrate people when they do well, and lift them up when they are struggling.
3 - Leaders who hold people accountable. Speak up and hold people accountable by telling them the truth.
Which area of leadership is your strongest, and which area of leadership do you need to get better in?
