  1. The Gold Standard: Building a World-Class TeamBy: Mike Krzyzewski Justin Meeth

  2. Quick Summary of The Gold Standard • Coach Mike Krzyzewski’s book on the process of building the 2008 Olympic men’s basketball team. The team was famously known as “The Redeem Team”. • Makes a list called the “Gold Standards”. These were his 15 goals for the team, which were all agreed on by everyone involved (coaches and players). These were the 15 guidelines Coach K facilitated his team to follow to achieve the most success, which in this case was winning the 2008 Olympic Gold Medal. • He talks about how the leaders of the group emerged and how each player on the team adapted to which ever role came their way.

  3. Common Goals • Fist analogy • Gold standards- list of 15 goals made by the coaches and team. • Take the time to establish standards. • “Lets be ourselves” –Coach K “I think we have to be a no excuse team.” – LeBron James

  4. Family Common Goals • Do well in everything we do (athletics, school, work). No excuses. • Family is your best support system • Fist analogy- stronger when we are on the same page. “Excuses are like dirty socks, everyone has them and they all stink.” - Mom

  5. Tuckman’s Theory • Forming- Team try outs for final roster • Storming- Communication & Honesty • Norming- Communication & Honesty; Gold Standards • Performing- Gold standards put into action • Adjourning- Winning the 2008 Gold Medal “The relationship that a leader wants to see develop among his or her team are based on communication.” -Coach K “Talk is contagious.” – Chris Bosh

  6. Tuckman’s Theory- Family • Building a relationship with communication and understanding between my brother, my mom, and myself. (Forming Storming Norming Performing) • When my mom got re-married 3 years ago we saw the building process start over in certain ways.

  7. Team USA’s Group Roles “Great teams have multiple leaders, multiple voices.” – Coach K • Coach Krzyzewski- Intiator/Contributor; Facilitator. • LeBron James- Leader; Opinion giver. • Jason Kidd- Leader; Energizer • Kobe Bryant- Leader; Information giver; coordinator

  8. Group Roles In My Family • Kim (Mom)- Leader; Coordinator; Energizer. • Johnny (older brother)- Encourager; Blocker. • Justin (me)- Information giver; Feeling Expresser • John (step-dad)- Opinion giver; Diagnostician.

  9. Conflict and Competition • “When you have a team filled with elite athletes in a professional sport, it is crucial to extinguish all egos. Otherwise, your overall collaboration as a team will suffer.” – Mike D’antoni , Assistant Head Coach of Team USA. • “Check your egos at the door.” – Jerry Colangelo, President of Team USA basketball operations. • Every single player or group member must adapt to the overall team goals.

  10. Conflict and Competition- Family • Sibling rivalries between Johnny and I- high school sports (lacrosse) and anything we could spark an argument on. • “If you don’t have anything nice to say, then don’t say it at all.” - Mom

  11. Reaching a Consensus- Team USA • Ultimate goal was to win the 2008 Olympic Gold Medal (Redeem Team) • All players had to accept list of the 15 “Gold Standards”. • Consensus was met to let go of all egos and to play for the name on the front of the jersey, not the name on the back.

  12. Reaching Consensus- Family • The 3 famous rules of Kim Arbolino (my mom) Johnny and I had to follow growing up: 1. My house my rules. 2. If you do poorly in school, you will not be able to participate in sports until they improve. 3. Be a leader and not a follower.
