How Do You Make Them Thirsty?: A Road Map For Developing The Potential In Others
MOST PEOPLE HAVE SOMETHING THEY WOULD LIKE TO DO BETTER.
If your job is to help them do that, where do you begin? You might think that because he served as a player development coach in the NBA, Phil Weber would suggest that you start by immediately focusing on the specific skills. What will surprise you about this book is that it starts with and builds on the mental and relational aspects of development that must be established first. Weber lays out a blueprint that addresses the importance of mindset as a foundation for the developmental process. And since all players (and all people) are different, there is no one—size—fits—all approach. This book describes how to identify the unique motivators and triggers that people bring to the table and how to meet them where they are psychologically and emotionally in order to create the right developmental process for them.

About the Author

PHIL WEBER is an expert on the subject of player and personal development. In college, Phil was a point guard on Jim Valvano's Cardiac Pack at North Carolina State University. After college Phil landed coaching positions at the University of Florida, Chaminade University, and Iona University. But it is in the NBA that Phil has had the most impact by combining his basketball knowledge and philosophical approach to the physical and mental development of basketball players. He sat on the bench as a coach for the Phoenix Suns and New York Knicks, was offensive consultant for the world champion Miami Heat, was head coach for the Miami Heat's G league team the Sioux Falls Skyforce, and went back to the bench as a coach of the New Orleans Pelicans before moving to their front office. A philosopher at heart, Phil lives the values he teaches, always reading, always writing, and always learning.
