Andy Reid shares the 4 things that players crave the most - and it's not what you think. "They want consistency. So I try to make it as consistent as possible." "But most of all, in your relationship with them, they don't want you to tell them a lie. They want the truth." "Sometimes the truth is good. And sometimes it's not so good. But they want that." You can't build a strong relationship without consistency and honesty. "I've found over the years that's the best way - as tough as it is for a coach - to tell somebody that's giving you their all every day, and they're making a living at this, that listen... you're not going to make it here." The hardest conversations are often the most important ones. "I try to give them the whys." Don't just deliver the news. Explain it. Help them understand. People want to be respected and they want to trust you. Give them: 1. Direction 2. Consistency 3. The Truth 4. The Why's By doing this, you build connection, trust, and a strong relationship as a result. (🎥@HeadCoachU with Bronco Mendenhall)
