Leaders: People will perform up to your expectations – set your expectations at your team’s full potential, then help them succeed.
Names Effect Enthusiasm
Sports teams select names that are meant to encourage the team to succeed and inspire the fans to cheer.
Some professional teams have names that represent action like:
- The San Diego Chargers
- Detroit Tigers
- Chicago Bulls
Other teams have names that celebrate their towns like:
- The New England Patriots
- Phoenix Suns
- Montreal Canadians
Can you imagine sports teams with a name like: “The Fumblers” or “The Strike-Outs” or “The Penalty Box?” Of course not.
