The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. -Martin Luther King, Jr.
Head Coach Mike Brown on the dilemma all leaders face:
Every SUGGESTION may help an individual 🙋♂️, but every DECISION must protect the group. 🚌
Leadership is the responsibility of filtering good intentions through the lens of identity, vision, and your non-negotiable standards.
Because not every opportunity is aligned opportunity.
The position of leader comes with the responsibility of saying yes or no to people who at face value are just trying to help...
But also weighing the opportunity costs against your identity, vision, and standards for the team that you believe CAN'T CHANGE, if you want to be successful. @nyknicks 💯
