FLEXIBILITY

“I have a plan of action, but the game is a game of adjustments.” -Coach Krzyzewski

"We must learn to fight in an environment of uncertainty, which we can by developing simple, flexible plans; planning for contingencies; developing standing operating procedures; and fostering initiative among subordinates." -From Warfighting: The U.S. Marine Corps Book of Strategy

“Flexibility is the key.” –Pete Carril
"You cannot simply ask your team to just adapt to you. As a leader, it is part of your responsibility to adapt as well. If everyone simply adjusts to the style of the leader, you are not getting the most of what everyone has to offer. Instead, a leader needs to be a part of a mutual adaption that forms a combination of the best of everyone." -Coach Krzyzewski
