Mike Sealy, Head Coach at UCLA, keeps his players well informed, eager to improve, and constantly engages in coach-team dialogue about goals. Every player has a "why" for their sport. As a coach, tapping into each player's "why" and applying that to practice and games keeps motivation high. Aligning the player's values with some aspect of the game will elevate a team's performance and energy.
