Robert Pomazak, Head Coach at St. Charles North High School (IL) is our guest on today’s podcast. We discuss his approach in creating a program by design, and he reflects on his first decade as a head coach and what he has learned. His reflection has plenty of takeaways that any coach can learn from. 1. You don't know what you don't know. 2. The last 10% of leadership is up to the leader. 3. The many hats of the head coach. 4. Your persistence must be greater than any resistance. 5. You are your program, and your program is you; As you evolve, your program must evolve. 6. Head coaching is 365/24/7. 7. Mental conditioning is just as important as physical conditioning. 8. People over players always. 9. It will be hard. Get comfortable being uncomfortable. 10. I am proud of myself.
