4 Quick “WHATS” to Creating Value
A few years ago, we were able to attend an annual basketball clinic, put on by long-time NBA coach, Brendan Suhr, and Boston Celtics assistant coach, Kevin Eastman. There were a lot of ‘golden nuggets’ on how much a basketball player contributes to his or her team’s success. Here are 4 questions to ask yourself to determine if you are creating value.
- What does my team need most (offensively, defensively, in the locker room, etc)?
- What things am I good at that I can become great at AND meet my team’s greatest needs?
- What are the little, nameless, often unnoticed acts that I can do, that no ones wants to do – between the lines and outside the lines?
- What things should I avoid – both on and off the court? What things should I add to my stop-doing list as a basketball player, teammate or person?
How do you rate yourself against Kevin Eastman’s four point checklist? What things are you going to start and stop doing, today?
Attend a Playmaker College course this summer to discover how to be the smartest player on the floor while developing the mental toughness necessary for greatness, both on and off the court.
