Marcus Freeman shares why "leading by example" isn't enough. "We don't love leaders by example. Because leaders by example are guys that do what they're told to do, they do everything they're asked, right?" "But they don't say things when their teammates aren't reaching the standard. We can't have...

Here's an example of leadership: not selected to CFP so they don't play a bowl game.

This is so very true. Too many leaders talk and walk the standard but can often times not say or do much with those around them.

That only works if they have teammates who are receptive to input.

Leading by example is the baseline. Leading with accountability is the standard" is a sharp way to put it. It's the same instinct behind the question I keep asking myself lately, are you still doing the work, or are you just performing what used to count as the work? Protecting a standard takes more courage than meeting one.

Jay Bilas shares what accountability really means and why most people get it wrong. "People think accountability means blame. It doesn't mean blame." "Accountability means holding yourselves to the standard that you guys deem to be important." Blame looks backward - accountability looks forward. "If it's important, then you'll point out to a teammate when he's not doing the right thing, or when he's not doing it to the best of his ability." "And if one of your teammates points it out to you that, 'Hey, you're not doing what you're supposed to be doing' - you're not gonna say, 'Well, how about you?'" "You're gonna say, 'You're right,' and you're gonna do it...that's what accountability means." Accountability isn't about calling people out. It's about calling people up. It's caring enough to hold each other to the standard. And then being humble enough to receive it. That's what great teams do.

Jim Harbaugh says the best leaders on his team make the example of what to do ridiculously simple “We have so many leaders on our team. Probably the most I can ever think of on any team I’ve ever been on, in terms of being a player or a coach. The amount of example setters, the amount of tone setters that we have.” “Guys that lead on and off the field. They just give you the perfect example of what to do. You want to know what to do, how to do it, when to do it. Guys that put their entire, not just their heart, their heart and soul into the way they approach this game. Tremendous versions of themselves.” “It just makes it so easy for the rest of us, really. Watch them. Study them. Emulate them. See if you can go make them proud of you. That standard that they set is incredible.”

Nick Saban shares what transformational leadership really looks like and the trap most leaders fall into. "If you're in any kind of managerial position, I think you should define your job the same way: Provide the leadership to develop the relationships to help people create and accomplish the opportunities that they have, and help them establish the discipline they need to do it." Then he broke down what leadership actually is: "Leadership is about helping somebody else, affecting somebody else for their benefit. Not for your benefit - for their benefit." "If you're doing it for your benefit, it's manipulation. And people can see right through that." That's the line right there... Leadership serves others. Manipulation serves yourself. "You gotta develop a relationship, because they gotta know you care. Hard to affect people if they don't think you care about them." Then he called out where most leaders spend their time: "How do you spend all your time? If you're a manager, you spend all your time with the people who don't do the right things. I call them energy vampires." "We got 5 guys on our team - they don't go to class, they don't do the right thing in practice, they loaf all the time. Those are the guys I meet with every day. They're energy vampires." So he made a commitment: "I'm gonna meet with 3 guys who didn't do anything wrong every day to see how they're doing. To make sure they know I care about them, their family, and what's happening in their life." "I wanna have a relationship with those people, so that when I need to affect them, I have a chance to do it." "People gotta know you care. If they think you only care about yourself, they're gonna think you're just a manipulator and you're not really going to affect them in a positive way." "You gotta serve other people." The core of servant leadership is wanting to see others at their best. It's not about control, it's about serving others. (🎥 CBT Automotive)

Kobe Bryant shares a truth about leadership most people avoid. "Leadership is lonely." "If you're going to be a leader, you're not going to please everybody. You've got to hold people accountable." Leadership isn't about being liked. It's about serving others, holding standards, and having the courage to do what's right even when it's uncomfortable. The best leaders master these six skills: 1. Accountability - Leaders set the standard and embody it. 2. Connection - It starts with caring. You need relationships to establish trust. People won't follow until they know you and what you stand for. 3. Communication - What you say, how you say it, and when you say it. 4. Adaptability - People resist change. Your job is to navigate it with resilience. How you communicate and behave will either inspire adaptation or cause resistance. 5. Development - Great leaders develop more leaders. It means believing in people's potential. 6. Character - The foundation. Integrity, honesty, doing the right thing when it's hard. Leaders with character earn respect because they act in alignment with their values. True leadership isn't about being liked. It's about doing what's right.

Tom Izzo shares why the best thing a leader can do is hold people accountable to their own dreams and how he does this with his teams. "I always ask them: What do you think my job is for you?" Most players don't know how to answer. So Izzo tells them: "The best thing I could do for you is to hold you accountable to your dreams and goals - not mine." "Sometimes as leaders, we look at what we want instead of what they want." Izzo has each player write down their goals on a card. Then he uses that card when they push back. "When he's mad at me because I'm on his butt about academics, I say: You told me you wanted to be an academic All-American. That's not my goal. That was your goal. My job - if I do my job right - is to hold you accountable to your goals." Leadership isn't about pushing your agenda. It's about helping people become who they said they wanted to be. Hold them to their dreams - not yours. (🎥 Michigan Association of Counties 2020)

Tom Brady shares what it really means to be a captain and why you can't fake leadership. "There's a really high standard you're held to when you have the C on your chest." "In the off season, there's no cameras watching. It's you and them. You can't fake it." "What I say, I do. I expect the same from you." Leadership isn't a title - it's your behavior. It's action-based. "I lead by example. I lead verbally. I lead through my toughness. I lead through my will to win. I lead by caring. I lead by believing in you. By encouraging you." "You gotta lead in all those different ways." And then he shared the 3 questions every leader needs to ask: "Do I care about my teammates? Do I care about what we're trying to accomplish? And then do I care about myself?" "That is always number 3 in a team sport." Team first. Mission second. Then self. That's leadership. And that's the standard. (🎥UFC | Daniel Cormier)

Dawn Staley shares a coaching and parenting truth that most people get wrong. "I'm very different than your parents because your parents don't want you to fail, and they don't want you to be uncomfortable." You can't steal the struggle for others. "They do everything in their power to make sure you don't feel the pain that they felt growing up. And it's probably the biggest mistake because they're gonna fail." Love isn't protecting someone from struggle - it's preparing them for it. "I tell them, 'I love you enough to allow you to fail.' I do." "I love you enough to allow you to hurt. I love you enough for you to have a bad game or bad month or even a bad season." You can't grow without failures, mistakes, and setbacks. That's where true growth happens. "And that's not just basketball, that's just anything. You're gonna have bad days that you're gonna have to just fight." The greatest gift you can give someone isn't comfort. It's the ability to handle discomfort. Optimize for resilience, not comfort. That's what prepares them for anything. (🎥Interview with Jemele Hill )

If something goes just a little bit different, then you go back and you adjust, you have flexibility to adjust. Accountability, holding guys accountable to the highest standard. If it's not right, fix it. Don't wait and let things kind of trickle and snowball. You want to be able to do that. Guys that empower players to be their best."

Asked Rudy Gobert what he meant by accountability and where that accountability needs to come from. "It starts with ourselves, but it seems like we don't have that. So I think at some point, from the coaches, yeah, from the coaches. It's not an easy position for a coach to take guys out of the game. It's not something you want to do. But I think if the players don't show any effort, at some point, no matter how talented we are as a team, if you don't have that, we just can't be a winning team. It starts with me. If I'm not showing effort, take me out the game. And everybody else gotta follow. Our best players, our leaders, if you don't show any effort, don't matter if you score 50, we're just not gonna win. So at some point, we're not mature enough to have that accountability ourselves. That might be the solution. And I guarantee (if that happens), when we come back on the court, we'd show effort."

"They were sitting in meetings, taking notes, paying attention. Our young players are like, 'Holy cow - this is how they do it here. I'm gonna take notes. I'm gonna pay attention.'" Culture is caught, not taught. The best players lead by example. They set the standard and everyone else rises to meet it. "When we got on the practice field - full speed. Taking snaps full speed.

It takes a little something special to be a great player." Then he made the standard clear: "We don't have enough great players. To hell with that!...We don't wanna coach average. I don't wanna be around you. Why be around average?" Average is comfortable. It's safe and it's not looking to compete. "Did you push yourself to be great today? Did you do it? If you didn't do it, you lost a day. We ain't got many days to lose." Every day you don't push yourself is a day you can't get back. Bring a mindset of excellence to everything you do. "And if there's a touch of greatness in there, how cool would that be?" The question isn't whether you have greatness in you. It's whether you're willing to work to find it. Show up, do the work, and compete. (🎥 ESPN)

Steve Jobs on how he learned to run a company: Question: "You're 21. You're a big success. You know, you've just sort of done it by the seat of your pants. You don't have any particular training in this. How do you learn to run a company?" Steve Jobs: "You know, throughout the years in business, I found something, which was that I always ask why you do things. And the answers you invariably get are, oh, that's just the way it's done. Nobody knows why they do what they do. Nobody thinks about things very deeply in business. That's what I found. I'll give you an example. When we were building our Apple I's in the garage, we knew exactly what they cost. When we got into a factory in the Apple II days, the accounting had this notion of a standard cost, where you'd kind of set a standard cost and at the end of a quarter you'd adjust it with a variance. And I kept asking, well, why do we do this? And the answer was, well, that's just the way it's done. And after about six months of digging into this, what I realized was the reason you do it is because you don't really have good enough controls to know how much it costs. So you guess, and then you fix your guess at the end of the quarter. And the reason you don't know how much it costs is because your information systems aren't good enough. But nobody said it that way. And so later on, when we designed this automated factory for Macintosh, we were able to get rid of a lot of these antiquated concepts and know exactly what something cost to the second. So in business, a lot of things are, I call it folklore. They're done because they were done yesterday and the day before. And so what that means is if you're willing to sort of ask a lot of questions and think about things and work really hard, you can learn business pretty fast. It's not the hardest thing in the world. It's not rocket science. It's not rocket science."
