IT'S NOT A DEMOCRACY

General Ulysses S. Grant did not believe in holding "councils of war."

"I believe it is better for a commander charged with the responsibility of all the operations of his army to consult his generals freely but informally, get their views and opinions and then make up his mind what action to take, and act accordingly." Ulysses S. Grant

LESSON: It's critically important to get input from you coaching staff before making a decision, but you abdicate your head coaching responsibilities by puttind decisions to a vote.
