Teamwork: Lesson of the Geese (Stephanie Norman, Louisville)

At "A Step Up" Women's College Basketball Assistant Coach's Symposium in Dallas, Stephanie Normal from Louisville talked about how she uses the example of a flock of geese to communicate important points of teamwork to her student-athletes. 

1. Common Direction (flying together in the V formation makes it easier and quicker to get to their destination)
2. Shared responsibility (the geese in the back will rotate to the front)
3. Encouragement (the geese in the back will 'honk' at the geese in the front)


Really cheesey video, but it makes some good points!
