[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Steve Kerr played for two of the greatest NBA coaches ever in Phil Jackson and Gregg Popovich.

He was asked, "What made them both so effective as coaches?"

His answer was so insightful and explains so much about coaching and leadership 👇

Leadership is not a title. It’s an act of service to make the people around you and your organization better.

[Jamy Bechler @CoachBechler]

Culture is the result of what you allow, reinforce, accept, or reward daily!

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Be kind. Say thank you. Hold the door open. Compliment as many people as you can. Point out the good and be the good. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Love, serve and care. The world needs more of this today (and every day)!

[Lexa Larsen @utesLL34]

@BradfatherSpeak I know I don’t deserve all the praise you shower upon me, but thank you. You always make me feel good. However, I can’t take credit for the cheer. I learned it @PGCbasketball .

[Chad Johnson @Chad_Johnson78]

I know this isn’t novel but.... teachers and staff work extremely hard and they are more likely to be successful in educating our students when students are actually in attendance! This is a basic principle that yields a massive dividend! Face-to-face connection matters!

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Treat people right. Appreciate them, encourage them, support them and make them feel like they matter (because they do). Do this at home, at work, at school, at the store, etc. Do this with people you know and people you don't. Try your best every day to make someone else's day.

PARENTS: Don't focus on the athletic success of your child. Instead, focus on their work ethic and ability to be coachable and respectful.

[Ball is Psych @BallisPsych]

Brad Stevens recently described Chris Paul in a game as, “Dominating the game with his voice.”

Tough players can dominate even when they don’t have the ball. Their vocal presence is a game-changer.

There’s no such thing as over-communicating. Dominate the game with your voice.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Life is about people, commitment, loyalty and relationships. In the end we won't be measured by our bank account, sales numbers or wins and losses but by the difference we made in people's lives... and we make a difference through relationships.

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

A team that loves each other is able to challenge each other to work harder and sacrifice more. Love makes you tough.

[North Sevier High School @NorthSevierHS]

Fun day of Basketball!! Lady Wolves played with heart and passion tonight! #seviersdstrong

[Travis Henderson @Travis_hende]

So lucky to work with a group of people who lift up students and each other every day!! We all need it!!

[Daniel Makepeace @PureIntensityBB]

Swing the ball once, get a good shot.
Swing it twice, get a great shot.
Swing it three times, get a layup.

[Daniel Makepeace @PureIntensityBB]

Just because you're a Senior doesn't make you a leader. Leadership is not something based on grade. It's based on action and character.

[Lexa Larsen @utesLL34]

@fawnpnguyen @KadouraS In my mind if you are using a transformation to verify congruence then you need to show that the two shapes will map onto each other. The third one is congruent but it doesn’t map the shape onto the other, so how would you verify?

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Culture is not just one thing. It’s everything. Culture is not static, its dynamic. Everyone on your team creates it and you are creating it each day by what you think, say and do. You can elevate it by what you think, improve it by what you say and make it great by what you do!

[Lexa Larsen @utesLL34]

@CadeDoug, I absolutely LOVED your presentation this morning. You’re a heckuva story teller and an even better leader. ❤️ I give my team days off and I go snowboarding during the winter to keep me balanced. It recharges me and makes me a better teacher and coach. #seviersdstrong

[James Clear @JamesClear]

Compliment others more.

You’ll barely remember you did it, but the other person may never forget that you did.

Kindness has unlimited upside.
