Check On Your People | You and They Matter

Check on your people. We are in the middle of a pandemic, social and racial justice, and the election season that just won't stop.

There are a lot of reasons for your people to be struggling mentally today. Check on them. Make sure that they are okay. Make sure that they know that you are here for them.

Great leaders create great teams by making sure that everyone feels like that matter, on a great team, that does stuff that matters. Make sure that you are connecting with them in a way that they know they matter and what we are doing together matters.

I played for a coach in college who had a great mindset on making where you are matter and meaningful. I asked him if his goals were to coach at a big-time college. His response was, "You have to make where you are big-time."

Your role in your job is big-time. It matters. You matter. Your player's matter. Your team matters.

Communicate with them in a way that they KNOW they matter. Make where you are at big-time.
