“"I don't tell any player why I put him in the game.", I do not authorize any player to ask me why they are not playing.. "I'm the coach, the decisions are mine. And nothing else."”
This is how Jorge Jesus, Benfica's coach, reacted last Saturday, April 3rd, in a press conference, to the expressed desire for Odysseas Vlachodimos to head to other destinations next season.
If the Excel training had the opportunity to do Coach the Coach To the Benfica coach, the three key questions would be:
- Jorge, it's true that the player was wrong to make those public statements. But, by also responding openly to the press, what disadvantages do you foresee in terms of... team cohesion and reputation for the Club?
- Imagine that your President prevented you from training the team and if I didn't explain the reason to you, How would you feel?
- You say you don't tolerate a player questioning why he's not playing. How then can that player... Improve, if you don't understand the reason?
In the numerous programs of “"Training Coach"” that Excel training We foster precisely the "why". It is through the "why" that leadership should be based.. In a football team, a commercial team, or any other team, it is essential that people understand the reasons behind the decisions made.
