. @KeenanClark3 and I spent months building the Skills Based Classroom. We have 3 semesters of data showing this helps kids learn. Change can be scary, but change can also lead to great things.
If you want to learn more about our Skills Based Classroom approach, check out the attached article.

Changes in education happen slowly. Jake Towers and I have spent two years creating a new classroom model that focuses squarely on student learning. Our Skills Based Classroom teaching model has been a huge success for our students. Please check out what we have created.

Feedback is starting to roll in from readers of my latest book The Sports Parent Solution.
Today I got this email from a coach. 🙏
This book will challenge you how you view and interact with sports parents.

Jay Wright was a Culture King!
Why?
Here are 5 quotes that help define Coach Wright as the King of Building Culture.
@CoachJayWright @NovaMBB @NovaAthletics
1: STATUS - “We have a saying that everyone’s role is different, but everyone’s status is the same. It’s a reminder that no matter how bright the spotlight gets, we are all part of something much larger than ourselves.”
WE > ME. Be a star in your role.
2: ATTITUDE - “The most important characteristic any of us have is our attitude. It’s a concept that permeates everything you do. We all bring our attitude to every situation.”
Attitude is everything. Be an energy giver.
3: SIMPLICITY - “We're not complex in what we do X-and-O-wise, but we do spend a lot of time on how we react mentally to every situation.”
Simple wins, and less is more. Great teams have mental toughness.
4: HUMILITY - “If you think about how good you are as opposed to what the next challenge is going to be, then you’ve already lost. We have to stay humble.”
Be humble in all you do. Gratitude matters.
5: CULTURE - “After we won in 2016, the goal wasn't to win another [national title]. The goal was to keep our culture strong. We knew that for us, that was the best chance of winning it again. If we tried to win it another way, we weren't going to win it anyway.”
Culture WINS. Culture is every day.

Great leaders speak the hard truth when necessary. They bring challenge when necessary. They hold people accountability when necessary.
They can do this because they’ve built trust, built influence, built credibility.
Leadership requires relationship.
