Upwards Forward

Newly appointed U.S. Men’s National Team Head Coach, Gregg Berhalter, spoke about leading in a situation where he does not see his people (players) every day – like leading multi-site churches. And how important culture is.

Here is how Gregg plans on doing it:

• Consistent messaging – “players need reinforcement on what we want to embody.”
• Staff sets the tone – “(I see these people daily, and) they must set the tone.”
• Contact points – “Take every opportunity to have as many (interactions) as possible throughout the year.”

If you had to give three points of advice, what would you say?
