John Wooden is the dean of Basketball Coaches, and to many he is the yard stick which all other basketball coaches are measured against. I was delighted to see that Coach Wooden had done a talk for Ted.com, and I include it here as the weekend Video simply because it is a very good talk about leadership, teaching and coaching.

I think the outline of this talk says it all:

With profound simplicity, Coach John Wooden redefines success and urges us all to pursue the best in ourselves. In this inspiring talk he shares the advice he gave his players at UCLA, quotes poetry and remembers his father’s wisdom.

Happy Easter !!!
