NGT: Zach Strief Retirement PC - Brees Comments

pjcas18 : 3/24/2018 10:15 am
Watched this when someone shared on LinkedIn (normally only see business stuff on there), thought it was great.

this is a small snippet of the retirement press conference, I did not watch it all.

You know you're doing something right when this is the response/comment you illicit from your teammates when they retire.

my greatest drive as a player was not to let you down


In fact this is the kind of testimony (for me personally) that means far more than stats or even other accolades.

And before anyone goes there this is not about Eli, Peyton, Brady, Rivers, Ben, Rodgers, Wilson or anyone else, it's about some comments Strief made about Brees in his retirement press conference I found to be a nice tribute to a good leader.

As a people manager, this is the kind of stuff that inspires me to do my best. It's cheesy, but it's true.

Agree, as both a leader and a human being. As a leader it's the kind of relationship and response I strive for in the people I lead, and as a person it's the kind of leader I hope to have. I don't care if it's cheesy, I think what Strief delivered was raw real emotion and I thought it was great.

a tribute to both him and Brees.
