If you are a fan of Hockey you are seeing many old style command and control type coaches being raked over the coals for the methods they used. No one questions the toughness or grit of an NHL hockey player, yet here we are with many All Star caliber players talking about how certain coaches worked and the affect it had on players. And it’s not looking good for the coaches.
It’s a new world and coaches will have to adapt.
I agree. Not a great parallel but I work in a leadership position where I oversee many 18-35 year olds. I have been in this role for 20+ years. If I were to lead them today the same way I did in the year 2000 it would not fly. Certain things are no longer acceptable. That said young people still want to be pushed and need accountability, the leader just needs to evolve in how that's accomplished.
