THE BALANCE BETWEEN DEMAND AND PATIENCE

"Coaching is a great balance between demand and patience.  The coaches who are demanding -- constantly demanding -- are not particularly good coaches.  The coaches who extremely patient are not particularly good coaches.  There's a balance between the two that I think is really important.  Patience allows for development; demand brings about development at a rate that you have to have."
