EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP 4.

.

Was it The Coach or The Players?

Personal and organizational effectiveness is proportionate to the strength of leadership- John Maxwell.

                Many a time I become confused when I observe the game of football and its team. I sometimes could not understand why the coach has to be sacked when a team keeps loosing. I used to ask myself, was it the fault of the coach that the team didn’t win? The coach isn’t playing, why not blame the strikers, the middle fielders
, the back players or even the goal keeper that couldn’t stop the ball from finding the back of the net.

                It also occurred to me that that same striker that could not score, when playing for another team becomes a top scorer. Leadership is the issue. It runs down from the owner of the club to the coach and to the technical crew. Personal and organizational effectiveness is proportionate to the strength of leadership- John Maxwell. That’s why when a company is losing money, they hire a new CEO, when organizations are not functioning as expected they look for a new leadership, when departments are experiencing hard times they look for a new leadership. When talented teams don’t win examine the leadership.

It all rises and falls with Leadership.
