In today’s information overloaded online world many volleyball coaches are driven towards the belief that they, as High School Varsity Head Coaches need to be like a fox in that they know everything there is to know about the sport of volleyball. This formula quickly leads to disaster due to lack of focus, lack of time, and most importantly, information overwhelm.

Volleyball1on1’s “Superior Coaching Systems” ™ for Head High School Coaches and their programs offer a proven winning formula based on a powerful business success tool from Jim Collins book “Good To Great!” known as the “Hedgehog Concept”.

The Hedgehog Concept – “One Big Thing”

Excerpts from “Good To Great!”:

Are you a hedgehog or a fox? In his famous essay “The Hedgehog and the Fox,” Isaiah Berlin divided the world into hedgehogs and foxes, based upon an ancient Greek parable: “The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing.”

Successful volleyball coaches know the “One Big Thing” that drives their programs success and they stay focused on that one thing. At Volleyball1on1 our “One Big Thing” is called:

What Great Looks Like! ®

The Hedgehog Concept is developed further in the famous business book by Jim Collins titled: “Good To Great!”. It is a simple concept that flows from the deep understanding about the intersection of three circles:

1) What you can be the best in the world at?

2) What you are deeply passionate about?

3) What best drives your economic or resource engine?

“Transformations from good to great comes about by a series of good decisions made consistently with a Hedgehog Concept, supremely well executed, accumulating one upon another, over a long period of time.” – Jim Collins
