What the World
Needs Now...
In 1965, the Jackie
DeShannon song with
its famous lyrics, "What
the world needs now is
love sweet love," became
a megahit, and has since
been recorded by one
hundred additional artists.
Today, fifty-two years
later, as one observes
what has arguably become a crybaby culture,
filled with snowflake
people, buffered by
marshmallow mindsets,
demonstrating buttercup
work ethics, it's clear what

we really need more of in
parenting, in schools, on
teams, and in leadership
is "love, tough love."
Tough love, is a concept
often underappreciat-

for their actions. This is
true, coach, but in the
world we live in, hordes of
people don't understand

that you show love by
not expecting much from
someone, so he or she
isn't made to feel uncomfortable or pressured;
or, believing that loving
someone means giving
a person six "second
chances" without any real
consequences for performance; or, that if you love
someone you will trivialize
truth and sugarcoat your
feedback to spare someone hurt feelings.
Tough love is about
telling the truth in love,
respectfully-not by being
a jerk, getting personal, or
becoming disrespectful.
Following are nine keys
to developing a more
effective tough-love style
of coaching that promotes
what's right and productive over what's easy or
popular.
1. HIRE PEOPLE
THAT WANT TO BE
