Leaders help groups set goals, envision the possibilities and make commitments Leaders can have a positive influence on the lives and behaviours of others Leaders are not necessarily people who do great things but rather people who inspire others to do great things YMCA Definition of Leadership We measure the effectiveness of a leader not in terms of the leadership he exercises, but in terms of the leadership he evokes; not in terms of power over others, but in terms of the power released in others; not in terms of the goals she sets up and the direction she gives, but in terms of goals and plans of action others work out for themselves with her help; not in terms alone of products and projects completed, but in terms of growth of competence, sense of responsibility, and personal satisfaction among many participants 2 Leadership versus Management Managers Leaders Set the overall vision and Direct or control operation or inspire performance Influence interpersonal Are concerned with logistics relationships and motivation May show management ability “Leadership is the knack of getting somebody to do something you want done because he wants to do it.” Dwight D. Eisenhower Leadership versus Supervision Supervisors Leaders Oversee or inspect the quality of May function as supervisors the work done BUT also encourage group Pass judgment on the group members to set and achieve members’ performance their own personal standards The Person at the Top Sometimes leaders find themselves in their positions because of their assigned status and leadership ability may be lacking. On the other hand, people who earn their status as leaders because of their actions may be a source of either support or irritation to the official leaders 3 Two Contrasting Examples of Successful Leadership Success Starts at the Top Reaching the Peak 4 Two Contrasting Examples of Successful Leadership Vince Lombardi vs. John Wooden Both coached teams to outstanding records, but their personal styles were at opposite ends of the spectrum Vince Lombardi Legendary NFL coach “Winning isn’t everything. It’s the only thing.” An extreme example of a task-oriented leader who asked everything of his players Not everyone liked working for him, but almost every professional football player wanted to have him as a coach because he would bring out their best performances John Wooden Influenced personal development of his players A person who taught on a constant basis based on his “pyramid of success” Although his practices were very demanding, there was always the sense of people having fun playing a simple game 5 The Pyramid of Success Canadian Leaders In Sport and Fitness Wayne Gretzky “The Great One” Widely considered the greatest hockey player of all time Captained the Edmonton Oilers to four Stanley Cup wins Scored 1,016 goals and assisted on 2,223 others, for a total of 3,239 points Executive director of Canada’s gold-medal- winning Olympic hockey team in 2002 Wayne Gretzky Foundation gives underprivileged kids the opportunity to play hockey Honorary chairman of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Canada 6 Christine Sinclair Put Canadian women’s soccer on the map Won multiple awards in her collegiate career, including woman athlete of the year Two-time Olympian and captain of the Canadian national team Won the Lou Marsh Trophy as Canada’s athlete of the year in 2012 All-time leader in goals scored for the Canadian national team Sits third overall in international goals scored by a female player David Patchell-Evans Bought his first fitness club in 1983 Owns and operates more than 300 GoodLife Fitness Clubs across Canada The key person in establishing Canadian Fitness Professionals Inc.

Many individuals who have achieved special recognition in sport – even “icon” status – have not necessarily displayed special leadership skills. For example, Terry Fox is recognized as an icon and a positive role model. Unfortunately, he never had the opportunity to realize his potential as a group leader.

  • Le Canada & Les Jeux Olympiques D‟Hiver „En Bref‟
    Le Canada & les Jeux Olympiques d‟hiver „En bref‟ Introduction Le 12 février 2010, Vancouver sera la ville hôte des XXIes Jeux Olympiques d’hiver, elle accueillera les athlètes du monde et ceux du Canada. Cette célébration marquera un nouveau chapitre dans la longue et riche histoire de la participation canadienne aux Jeux d’hiver. Le Comité Olympique Canadien a envoyé des athlètes à toutes les éditions des Jeux Olympiques d’hiver et James Merrick, membre du Comité International Olympique (CIO) au Canada, fut un supporter passionné de l’idée de créer des Jeux d’hiver séparés. Lorsque la « Semaine de sports d’hiver », qui devait plus tard être reconnue rétroactivement par le CIO comme les premiers Jeux Olympiques d’hiver, eut lieu à Chamonix (France), du 25 janvier au 5 février 1924, un petit groupe de Canadiens étaient présents pour écrire les débuts de cette histoire. Les sports et les disciplines que pratiquent les Canadiens Aux Iers Jeux Olympiques d‟hiver, les hommes canadiens participèrent à trois des neuf sports et disciplines au programme : patinage de vitesse, hockey sur glace et patinage artistique. L’équipe canadienne de patinage de vitesse se composait d’un athlète : Charles Gorman. La délégation féminine était également limitée puisqu’elle ne comptait que Cecil Eustace. Eustace concourut en patinage artistique, dans l’épreuve individuelle et avec Melville Rogers dans l’épreuve par couple. Le programme olympique et la délégation canadienne se sont grandement développés au cours des vingt éditions des Jeux d’hiver célébrés jusqu’à présent. Aux XXes Jeux Olympiques d‟hiver à Turin en 2006, les athlètes canadiens ont pris part à l’ensemble des 15 sports et disciplines pour les hommes et aux 13 pour les femmes figurant au programme.
