Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The leader’s central task is to set clear standards for our team’s goals, challenges, and even ordinary activities. From team meals to strength and conditioning to the way we start practices, we must proactively define the line.
- What do we do?
- What do we not do?
- Why does it all matter?
Once we’ve defined it, we can begin to defend the line.
- Are we modeling the standards?
- Are we appreciating when we see it in others?
- Are we bold in advocating for our goals and way, and challenging each other when we fall below the line?
When every team member is empowered to defend the line that we have defined, even everyday moments can become powerful drivers of connection and performance. Tune in as we unpack what you need to know and explore how teams are applying this powerful framework.
