Let’s take an in depth look at the aspect of peer leadership within the game of football. Here are a few questions to get you started.
- What is player leadership, and how important is player leadership within a football program?
- What is the difference between peer/player leadership and the leadership of an authoritative position such as a boss?
- Is it the responsibility of the coaching staff to teach quality leadership?
- What type of intangible leadership qualities do you look for in a player?
- When it comes to captains, would you chose the captains or let the team vote for who gets to be a captain? Why?
- What types of strategies would you use to develop your players into effective leaders?
This discussion often turns into a nature vs. nurture debate on the formation of leadership. I look forward to hearing your input.
