I believe one of the most important things we can do as humans is add value to others. I
often tell young coaches when they ask about what kinds of things to do while
interviewing for jobs, show them how you will add value. This would be true for anyone
in any job. Show them how you will add value to teammates/coworkers,
principles/superintendents/bosses, families of team members, community stakeholders
and anyone else you may come in contact with.
If you add value, your services will always be desired.
How do I add value? Simply make others’ lives better. This could be physical, by way of
manual labor, mental by way of behavior skills, social by being a friend, financially by
helping them out when in need, spiritually by praying for them, etc. Be kind and you will
find a way to add value. Good luck!
