**What can youth basketball teach us about business, leadership & accountability?**  
Just as basketball teams have coaches - YOU are the coach of your business.  
In order to develop a winning team you have to encourage your players. Pat them on the back when they score a point or deserve a "job well done!" Those players (*your* players) NEED that motivation from their coach but they also need *complete clarity  *when they **don't** meet your expectations.   
Having that difficult conversation - letting your team know when their performance isn't up to par, is ESSENTIAL to their personal growth & the growth of your business.   
Having that balance is just one of the not so pretty/ not so easy **responsibilities** of being a leader.   
Don't forget to remind them! THEY are good enough (or else you wouldn't have placed them onto your team... right?) then guide them through the process of improving that performance.   
Take a look at The Lost Interview with Steve Jobs that was mentioned by Bradley in the video:
