News Pies drop Leading Teams

[RupetFan]

Yeh Nah.
It's because they won flags, then everything is genius, even the margarine they use.
Win everything brilliant.
Lose, everything is stupid.

Yeah.... nah.

 

[PhiloBeddoe]

This!
Leading Teams were at 7 clubs this year, although parted ways with Richmond a few months ago and now us. Still at 5 other clubs.

For whatever reason, it wasn't suited to our group. Can look at the reasons from a couple of perspectives
1) The existing culture before it was introduced was too far removed from what the program tried to achieve.
2) It's a s**t program and just a money maker.

 

[Kirby]

It works for some clubs/teams and not for others.

It appears it didn't suit us and that's fine. Recognise it's not working and get rid of it.

Didn't the Doggies get rid of it? They seem to have a very strong culture at the moment.

But as Saintly Viewed always says, winning games probably helped a lot!

 

[Tazzaye]

Do we have a company that wipes the players arses as well

Maybe a bit of each but I have seen it work well at a managerial level but when tried at the next level down, a major flop.

 

[La Dispute]

Pretty sure we've "been there done that"

IIRC Harry / Heritier used to run meditation sessions when he was at the club.

Was it optional or did the entire group participate?

 

[Lockyer24]

I wasn't a fan either. Not suited to a young list. At the end of the day though you can blame a lot of things for our crap performance though.

Article just out in The Age:

'Collingwood's new-look football department has enacted further change, with the club deciding to again part ways with high-performance consultants Leading Teams...The Pies confirmed to Fairfax Media on Tuesday that the club's football department had decided Leading Teams would not have a role at the Holden Centre in 2017, feeling that the time had come to move on from the leadership experts. Other than confirming the split, Leading Teams declined to comment.'

Best news all day!

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

All hail the great gubby go d


Everything that happens now that's good, in people's view, it's the great Gubby
Anything bad it's Buckleys fault.

(I'll set the default setting)

Actually I suspect that everything good and bad now defaults to Gubby.

 

[BEEG]

Thank *, outdated program that divides and destroys footy clubs.

 

[Anzacday]

Mindfulness Meditation is the next natural progression for the Collingwood Football club.

More and more teams are integrating it into their operations.

Here you go pass it on to Bolts...

we need leading teams here on bigfooty. If we did, I'd be honestly and constructively calling a few here 'dicknoses'.....and it would be ok.

Only a few?

 

[PhiloBeddoe]

Thank ****, outdated program that divides and destroys footy clubs.

Similar programs have been popping up so no, it's not outdated. Research on the current generation in their 20's says that they want more input into the practises of their workplaces and need a sense of ownership.
When it comes to Collingwood, the timing wasn't great. IMO, I'd have a look at the club and its characters before you pot the program.
You make a gross generalisation when you say it destroys footy clubs.

That's not Leading Teams, that's After Game Drinking Session Teams.

Go the Gubster.
Kick more butt.

As long as the current generation in their 20's are getting some valuable input then it works FiloBeddoe........but if the puppets......sorry the leadership group are dictating the resolution to meetings then leading teams fails.

It's time our Club stops holding hands and as Maxy said a few years ago at the Copeland the players need to "step up"!

Get a ruck coach now instead of leading teams........it's a from me.

 

[THATSGOLD]

So we've realised we've been doing it wrong for 5 years and the man still over looking all of this is still the coach. Makes sense.

Sheesh! I thought Hendo was some cool surf lifesaver dude...not some spiritual wannabe guru...

Hard to tell through the smoke haze.

This has a little bit of the Bomber Thompson/Cats review about it. Seems like Bucks has been stepped back into the coaching role and not overseeing everything and anything.

Leading Teams gone - YES YES YES - another Bigfooty thread win - thanks for reading Gubby lol

 

[NT.Thunder]

But it was working so well for us

 

[nahnah]

Keep going Gubby!

How do you feel a program like this could benefit Collingwood?

 

[sr36]

You mean it's stupid because of how precious players are when encountering constructive criticism. God forbid they are asked to follow team guidelines in a team sport and are held accountable.

Leading teams and similar systems are great if run properly, but if it isn't it becomes an English boarding school prefect system, which I get the impression is what it became at the Pies.
