On influencing referees, leading with humility, and consistent execution
September 19 | The 3-Point Play
BASKETBALL TIP
How do you influence a referee?
1. Help the referee see better.
2. Reduce the number of plays that will require a referee’s decision.
3. Help the referee like you more.
4. Be business-like at all times.
5. Realize that everything looks different from a different angle.
If you want to make calls, become a referee. If you want to play, play.
LEADERSHIP LESSON
“Humility does not mean weakness, but its opposite. Leaders with mana understand the strength of humility. It allows them to connect with their deepest values and the wider world.”
– James Kerr
LIFE PRINCIPLE
“Execution is the single greatest market differentiator. Great companies and successful individuals execute better than their competition. The barrier standing between you and the life you are capable of living is a lack of consistent execution.”
– Brian P. Moran
