Leadership: Urban Legend

OSU football coach Urban Meyer has shared many valuable leadership lessons, among them his 10-80-10 principle. It's a variation on the 80-20 theme, but argues that your top ten percent need no motivation, but can be used to help move others (the 80 percent) into the top ten percent. 

But he also emphasizes other important points for growth. 


"A leader is someone who earns trust, sets a clear standard, and then equips and inspires people to meet that standard.”


"Meyer quips in Above the Line that average leaders have inspirational quotes, good leaders have a plan, and exceptional leaders have a system."


"Meyer’s Above the Line standard requires that a player’s behavior be “intentional, on purpose, and skillful.”
