The culture of any organization is shaped by the worst behavior the leader/coach is willing to tolerate.
When toxic employees/players’ negative behaviors are allowed, it can have detrimental effect on the entire culture.
Leaders/Coaches- what you fail to correct, you applaud!

Absolute truth from Mr Trevino!
It's Trevino Tuesday again. Here's one for the "grow the grass" contingent. Is the biggest improvement in modern golf the equipment? Nope. It's the mower.

Good teachers know their lesson plans. Great teachers know their students.
Good coaches know X's and O's. Great coaches know their players.
Good leaders know their vision. Great leaders know their team.
Your people make the difference. They matter. Remind them that you care.

Nothing will ruin employee morale faster than a good employee watching a bad employee not be held accountable.
Nothing will ruin a team dynamic faster than a manager not standing up for a direct report.
Accountability. Loyalty. Integrity.
That’s leadership.

It’s the time of the year when we lose staff. I wanted the parents to know how grateful I was of having their kids on staff this year.

A New England superintendent turned general manager on his management philosophy: "Our employees are our No. 1 asset. We can fix triplexes and ovens; we can’t afford to fix an employee."

PGRs programs can have a big influence on putting green quality and green speed. Can aggressive PGR programs offset the effects of high N. How does mowing at 0.080 compare to 0.120? See the complete study results for 2020 in my GKU PGR course. Greenkeeperapp.com/marketing… – at Lincoln, NE
