Message: [QUOTE="Powellfan, post: 3892289, member: 4819"] Ks Orange had recently asked about the culture of the team, and on a recent podcast, Quint K brought it up as well in relation to the Orange specifically - wondering if it were good enough. I thought this article was good in explaining what went into making a good culture. It's still hard to define for me, and it can mean different things to different people, but it seemed like the coaches interviewed here (Bruce Arians, Steve Kerr, Joe Maddon and Nick Saban) came to a lot of the same conclusions. What stuck out to me was accountability and trust. It seemed important to these coaches that the players themselves felt empowered to make right choices and that they were trusted by their teammates and coaches. Will be interesting to see how Gait and the other coaches implement a winning strategy on this issue, and how they build trust, and find leaders on the team. In the Petro interview he talked a lot about competitiveness and commitment, I have to imagine those traits will be a focus. They also talked a lot about how one player can make a big difference in cementing or turning around the culture of a team (Arians brought up Tom Brady for instance). As a tactic, Arians also brought up the fact that they will post every mistake made in practice, or a game on a whiteboard where everyone can see. This helps make sure mistakes are eliminated since players do not want to see their name on that board. Made me think of the myriad of careless penalties the Orange made last year. Anyway, the Athletic is subscription based but I find their articles worth the money.
