What separates Coach Orgeron from the pack

Everyone has been amazed at the transformation of Coach Orgeron, and I’d like to let you know some things that I’ve noticed that really separates Coach Orgeron from the rest of the coaching pack.

1) MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL.... The man simply does not have to feed an ego

This is a critical part of his character that all of the following points below hinge upon

2) He has brought in some of the best analysts to surround himself with who are serving as mentors to him as he listens, and he absorbs every bit of their knowledge and observations. The man is CONSTANTLY learning, and not too proud to do so either, which is enormously to his credit.

3) He, without a second thought, sought to transform LSU, and in doing so, went to where they know a thing or two about productive offenses, and found what he was looking for. He didn’t give it lip service, or hesitate and say it was going to be some long arduous process to do so, he simply loaded the gun and pulled the trigger.

4) Constant deflection of credit to the Team and Coaches is something that’s proven to be infectious to the rest of the team, which in turn makes the team an unselfish single unit of talent that has one desire and one desire only, and that’s to WIN, and whatever it takes to get to that point is what it is going to take, and they do it.

5) He puts it all together, and then he does something that every GREAT Leader in ANY field in life does which inspires excellence and success. He trusts his decisions and people, and let’s them do their job. He does not micromanage, or put his fingers in the ointment. He trusts who he’s put in positions and lets them do it. That may seam like a small thing to some who don’t know, but it’s usually quite rare to find leaders who do that, but when you do, they are the absolute best leaders in life, and people whom everyone wants to work for.


Want to be a success in life? Let other people shine, and you don’t have to worry about people giving you credit. They will. People like myself will point it out for you.
