Ways to contribute to an operation in two rough buckets: Determine the work to be done. Do the work. Player-coaches fit right between the two. When you are determining the work, I think of it as being the DJ. You and/or a team are choosing what track to play, for how long, in what sequence, and at what time. This enables the individuals you manage to go and actually play that song.

“What can I do to help you get there and make a decision?” What a fantastic question — and especially when holding space for friends to think things through.
