This week’s quote has been selected in support of Everette Withers who was named UNC-Chapel Hill’s Interim Head Football Coach at a press conference on Friday. Withers shared the quote during his statement, saying it’s been on his wall for over two years. It was a perfect choice for the occasion – an encouraging nudge for all in the Carolina community.
It’s also a perfect quote for the launch of Mistake Management Month.
More information on Mistake Management coming throughout the month of August – about ways to make the best of the way things turn out.
Great for morale, productivity and overall performance.
Note: If you haven’t heard about the UNC football situation, I’d rather leave it that way because it’s my alma mater and it’s embarrassing. Yet – it’s an opportunity to observe and learn from leadership, teamwork and mistake management in action.
Quick Overview: The UNC football program has been mired in a mess that first surfaced in June 2010. As additional information has come out during investigations by the university, the media and the NCAA, the mess has blown into a scandal that has caused a huge and emotional divide between stakeholders (students, faculty, staff, alumni, fans and taxpayers) on what should be done about it. Several individuals have lost their jobs but the head coach held on to his until last Wednesday when he was fired by the chancellor of the university.
While many were relieved that the head coach finally lost his job, others were shocked by the timing – one week before practice begins and about a month before the first game – and many are now calling for the chancellor to be fired.
If you’d like more details, here is a link to a timeline of the situation and a link to Wither’s statement at Friday’s press conference.
