People, Participation, Progression, Performance in Hockey
The biggest threat to greatness as a team is inside your locker room. Great teams are connected, coordinated, and committed. Great teams know the culture is only as strong as their collective commitment. It means ownership.
| COMPLACENCY |  | Complacency erodes your discipline. • It affects your attitude. • It affects your actions. • It affects your effort Success hinges on doing the work, while complacency is full of indifference and lacks enthusiasm. Just because you've had success before doesn't mean you're entitled to it again. |
| SELFISHNESS |  | Selfishness is when the ME is greater than the WE. Great teams are connected. They create a culture of selflessness, togetherness, and shared responsibility. • It means commitment. • It means consistency. • It means reliability. They know unity and teamwork are essential to performing their best. |
| LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY |  | Accountability starts with you. You're either setting the standard or allowing it to happen. It means taking ownership of your actions, decisions, and outcomes. • It means discipline. • It means responsibility. • It means self-leadership. Great teams don't just talk about accountability, they build it into their daily habits and process. |
“There are 3 things we can’t have: We can’t have complacency, we can’t have selfishness, and we can’t lose our accountability.” – Nick Saban
