Don't just claim a title, "queen bee" or "beta female."  

Excerpt on beta female: 

A beta female is often extremely intelligent and has the ability to see things from loads of different perspectives.

She enjoys reading and watching documentaries, knowing that hearing new ideas and other people’s opinions is really important. 

Her intelligence is both analytical and emotional.

She is very good at thinking logically and reasonably in regard to work and career. She is great at forming her opinion and can eloquently convey it to others. 

Her emotional intelligence is also very impressive!

She understands how other people work and has the ability to see things from a whole range of perspectives. This means that she is a great part of any friendship group and can settle arguments and disagreements between people. 

Every team member should lead, regardless of playing status.

  • Model excellence
  • Early is "on time"
  • Be the hardest worker on the team
  • Question how to improve the team and individually
  • Excel at home and in the classroom
  • Be a great teammate
  • Bring energy and positivity
  • Be ready for your opportunity
  • Bring credit to your team 
  • Never be a distraction
Lagniappe. Jon Gordon has written many books on leadership and performance, Soup, The Positive Dog, Training Camp, The Hard Hat, The Energy Bus, and more. 

As we experience life, we work with leaders seeking control and leaders who serve. Leaders who serve lead best. 

Lagniappe 2. Learn to be a great teammate. 

Lagniappe 3. Don't be a blame guy.  

 Lagniappe 4. A game of separation...cutting and passing. Be aware of your defender. 


Lagniappe 5. Beautiful action by the Pelicans. Maybe the Celtics started to look for "downscreen DHO" and the Pels slip the downscreen.
