Coaches Clipboard

Hockey is a team sport. Success is a team sport.

Our “Coaches Clipboard” is a collection of pertinent phrases, knowledge and wisdom. Shared (almost) every Sunday, it’s our "thinking menu" with some bits and pieces we came across…
#sharetheknowledge 🙂

Read. Enjoy. Think. Share.

1. Hockey is a team sport. Success is a team sport.

2. Give people a reason to be interested in you.

3. We either create a path forward or someone else is going to create it for us.

4. Mistakes are not failures, do not ever perceive a mistake as a failure, perceive it as feedback. Everything is feedback.

5. Leadership isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being real.

6. Make friends before you need them.

7. Be present. The now is the only moment you have. Don't ruin it by dwelling on the past or worrying about the future.

8. Be in constant search of teachable moments.

9. Be courageous enough to say 'I don't know'. Ignorance acknowledged is an opportunity. Ignorance denied is a closed door.

10. What do you actually value?
