    Default Titans coaching style

    John Cartwright needs to change his coaching style, too much forward running all one ups most of the time , Does not give the backs a chance to run at all , its been this way all year and I cannot believe they have not changed their style.

    He played a forward all his life...so I guess you get what you see......That is why everyone is crying out for a backs coach..

    ......to help him out of course.

    Who is more important in today's game...a predominately forward-based coach who has limited knowledge of the backs or a predominately backs-based coach who has limited knowledge of the forwards?
    Obviously two specialist coaches would be best but if we had to choose!

    Situational leadership is the idea that one changes his or her leadership style in a given situation. According to Hershey and Blanchard, the type of leadership that is appropriate for any given situation is driven by follower readiness or development. Readiness is based on two factors: ability, meaning the follower has the necessary knowledge, skill, and experience and willingness, or confidence, commitment, and motivation.

    The theoretical model put forth by Hershey and Blanchard matches up each follower readiness level with an appropriate leadership style. R1 means that the followers are low on ability and low on confidence. This calls for leadership style S1, which is comparable to a dictator, and involves the coach providing specific instructions and closely supervising performance. S1 falls on the spectrum that is high on task behavior but low on relationship behavior. R2 is the next follower level where the followers are still low in ability but high in willingness. S2 is the leadership style to go along with R2 and is high on task and high on relationships. The leader, in this case, explains decisions and provides opportunity for clarification. R3 (high on ability, low on willingness) matches up with S3 (low task, high relationship) which is a supportive leadership style. The leader shares ideas and facilitates in decision making. The final level is R4 (high ability, high willingness) and the final leadership style is S4, a kind of laissez-faire style of coaching. In S4, the leader turns over responsibility for decisions and implementation.
