Keep pushing yourself
More from Dan Hurley
Balance tough preparation with unwavering support
Sometimes your team needs you to push them. Other times, you've got to be their biggest supporter. Embrace both roles as a leader—and know when to lean into each one!
Find a working environment suited to your personality
Not every work environment will be a fit for who you are as a leader. The better you understand the expectations of the organization you work for and align that with what you bring to the table, the better prepared you'll be for success.
Misaligned levels of passion can create conflict
When the person that cares too much meets the person that doesn't care enough, things can get bumpy. Make sure everyone on your team knows the level of buy-in you expect.
Let your past disappointments fuel you
We all have times when we’re not at our best. Instead of dwelling on those low points, use them as motivation to bounce back.
Never stop pushing for mastery
No matter where you are in your career, don’t ever lose your hunger to improve and get better.
