Developing Your Team’s Character - Part I
Renowned college football coach Tommy Bowden recently shared with our network the changes he saw over time when he was recruiting players. For example, there were usually both parents involved in his player recruitment conversations early on.
That has changed. Now it’s rare to have two parents involved.
Tommy determined he needed to spend more time on character development. He developed a system he refers to as CARDS.
The C in CARDS stands for commitment. Tommy’s new players needed to know his rules and commit to the team’s code of conduct.
Numbers 30:2 teaches, “If a man makes a vow to the Lord, or takes an oath to put himself under a binding obligation, he shall not break his word.”
Are you asking your team members to make commitments to a code of conduct in your workplace?
Questions for Reflection:
- According to Numbers 30:2, to whom are commitments made?
- Some businesses do not have clear codes of conduct. Why would this create chaos?
- How can you make your business or team’s code of conduct clear to everyone involved?
