Good teams and programs have an identity. The identity is usually based on what the coach believes in and their teams typically execute that identity consistently season after season.
People may describe a basketball team with a positive identity as “tough”, “defensive minded”, “shoot the three well”. I always wanted my teams to be known for three things. Play Hard, Play Defense, Play Together.
Every team and every program have an identity. The good programs identity is well planned, effective and usually results in consistently winning.
Programs that do not have a clear identity are easy to spot too. Their identity is that they have no true identity. They just exist and often look in disarray.
How about you? When people see you do they know what you stand for? How will they describe you? Every day you are living your identity. Make sure it is a consistent and positive (winning) identity.
