Situational Leadership is an easy concept to understand. It's about adapting your style to meet the needs of the situation, and more importantly the people.
But if it's so easy, then why do so many College Football coaches struggle to adapt to the NFL? And why do so many first time leaders struggle to adapt from peer to manager? Because there's a big difference between knowing, and doing.
Nate begins by defining situational leadership for you in a personalize way -- by asking you to look internally at your own preferred style, and then challenging you to think about how difficult it would be to flex out of it. From there, he illustrates how Urban Meyer struggled to do just this, and how a comment in his introductory press conference might have tipped us off.
Later in the episode, Nate examines Steve Nash's transition from player right into Head Coach, and compares that to the transition from a peer to leader. He then drops his 3 best tips for successfully transitioning into a leadership role, before leaving you with the episode challenge.
Tune in to hear more and learn how to become a situational leader.
