Nick Saban has always asked this question about Leadership... "How many guys on the team need to be led?" Coach Saban believed in the power of Collective Leadership with his teams. 1. Are most players on your team bought in? 2. Do most players on your team set a good example? These players do not need someone to impact or influence them if they are already making these choices and leading by example. This is the power of collective leadership. Collective leadership is vital to successful teams. I believe there are 7 types of Collective Leaders that all teams need: 1. The GAMER - When the game is on the line. Who does the team look to? Who wants the ball in their hand? It is the Game Leader. They don't "have" to lead in other ways, but it would be best if they did. This player is often the ultimate competitor on the team. 2. The WORKER - Winning Teams have Practice Leaders. They bring energy and focus to each practice. They ensure competitive and strong practices. They Lead by Example. You practice much more than you play. 3. The GATEKEEPER - This leader ensures the Team Culture is Maintained. They put out the fires. They keep the team accountable. Especially when the coach is not there. They are essential in WINNING Teams. 4. The COMMUNICATOR - It is a long season. There will be difficult days. Teams need the Communicator to get through these tough days. They often provide humor and can lighten the mood. They have high Emotional Intelligence. This is an Underappreciated Leader. 5. The CONNECTOR - These players are often your “glue” players. They keep the team connected on the court or field as well as in the locker room and in social settings. 6. The ENERGY GIVER - The Energy Giver brings Positive Energy Every Day! Their Energy is Contagious! This leader knows that nothing great can be accomplished without Enthusiasm. The Energy Leader brings positive energy each day. They feed the team! 7. The SERVER - Finally, the Server embodies Servant Leadership. They are all about the TEAM. They bring a WE-first mentality to all they do. Their focus on the TEAM creates a contagious WE>ME mentality throughout the team. Collective Leadership WINS. _____ Follow me for more actionable ideas on coaching, leadership, and personal growth. Subscribe to my newsletter, 🏆 Great Teams Better Leaders 123.

High School Football Team Sings the "Ave Maria" After Every Game, Honoring Our Lady in Viral Video One Catholic high school football team in California went viral after sharing how they honor the Blessed Mother after each game. Saint Joseph Academy High School Football Team in San Marcos, Calif. kneels while singing the Ave Maria after every football game. The school recently published the video on YouTube, which quickly gained traction throughout other social media networks. In another video, team captains Isaac and Andrew explain why they sing the Ave Maria after games. The team says they partnered with Virtue=Strength, a Catholic virtue training program that "engages the hearts and minds of students" with three pillars: virtue, ceremony, and Catholic identity. Fellow teammate Paolo initially came up with the idea to honor Our Lady after football games. "One of our teammates had the idea to sing something to the Blessed Mother after our games as a way of consecrating all our actions back to God, and so we went with the 'Ave Maria' and we chanted in Latin after our games," team captain Isaac says in a video. "It's been really inspiring," Andrew, another team captain, adds. "We hope to make it a tradition after every game." "As proud Catholics and going to this amazing school," Andrew continues, "we want to do things that are special to our faith and to our Mother Mary because that's an important aspect of our lives." The boys then explain that when they ordered new football jerseys last year, they added "AMDG" to the back, which stands for the Latin phrase, "Ad maiorem Dei gloriam," or "all for the greater glory of God." "That's why we play football. We want to glorify God on the field through our actions and being a really good football team," Isaac says. Andrew then adds that through these athletic programs, including football, they "strive to reach a higher level of virtue." "We strive to reach a higher level of virtue, especially playing on the football team," Andrew says. "It's so important to us to be true to our Catholic identity and grounded in the faith and everything that we do."
