Far to many different personalities on a football team.
No matter the field of expertise, those who learn how to work around the different personalities are the successful people who are liked and admired in the world.
My oldest son, after a 5 year career in heating and air, was ask to go into sales, he wasn't sure, he was doing pretty well in the maintenance end, as are all my boys in the same field. But Sam's boss insisted and sent him to a school that taught him to work with and around different personalities. My son is now the top salesman in the Western United States, and has been so since his second year in sales. And he credits that course for his success.
Sam works "one on one" with his clients, I can't imagine a coach working with a whole team of different personalities, or a position coach working with 10-20 people at a time. I don't know how much one on one time a player gets with a position coach, probable not much at all with the head coach. But it would seem to me that a coach would have to adjust in some way.
Wish I had taken that course earlier in my life! It would have made a difference.
