Best Coaching Links of Last Week: How to Prepare for Matchday, Perfectionism, Personal Brand & Leading By Example

Not everyone might like it (and it isn't the be all) but ultimately, a coach's work is seen when there is a match.  Here are a couple of videos by Ally Bain on how to prepare players for matchday.

How important is perfectionism for success?  My own view is that it is success is ab accumulation of small things done extremely well which sound very much like perfectionism.  Anyway, here's an article debating that issue.

I'd never really noticed the site of the League Managers' Association but these are two fine articles that have ensured that I will be keeping a close eye on it in the future.  The first piece is about leading by example, something that every coach has to live by.

The second piece deals with developing a personal brand.  This might seem like marketing spiel and has very little to do with football but, ultimately, when you think about any top managers you immediately think about the characteristics that define them.  Can you reach the top if you're bland?

AND FINALLY...
