The lesson to Learn from the person of the " Big Boss"

As a Secondary School Teacher look at yourself often as a coach whose performance directly varies with your students' performance well ceteris paribus anyway.Try to find inspiration in various Coaches  in the world of round leather game(Football).You had a lot of Coaches on you radar Sir Arsene Wenger of Arsenal, Samson Siasia,Pa Adegboye Onigbinde e.t.c. Suddenly, from the corner of your head a name sprang up Late Stephen Okechukwu Keshi.

Here is man whom Nigerians and our Football glass house despised and he was making wave outside the shore of this country. He qualified uncommon African team for Nation's cup and World cup respectively. During, this time our so called Super Eagle has started jumping instead of flying. As a person why not pick up this, you don't need your folks to believe in you to beat their imaginations. An attitude the " Big boss" re-echoed in a match against the almighty Elephant of Ivory Coast in 2013 AFCON when the people that ought to be motivating had already had return tickets of the team to Nigeria in Stock.

Young Teacher to teenagers and football coach have a similar problem which is managing a bunch of objects who can be unruly. These objects under your care varies in Intelligent quotient, Smartness, Brilliancy and of course common sense. As a teacher you have the primary duty of understanding each student potential and maintain discipline to ensure a decorum in the Class. This, the Big boss did as coach of  the Super Eagle. When the Man was sacked then thing fell apart in the Super Eagles team though things weren't not really together just that the man ensured decorum even when the players were angry and hungry. What makes you an hero is your ability to ensure decorum in a place where there ought to be cacophony.

You wonder how many colleague of yours will accept the failure of their students as their own failure. The "Big Boss" throughout his stay as the Coach never had heavy defeat score line. In fact most of his defeat can be predicted on paper. Most of his least expected result was draw, you wouldn't have to blame him much because all other thing in the back-room and glass house was not constant. During, this time " The Big Boss" was always there to accept the faults for his players and ready to face the next game.

Lastly, "The Boss" came on board with some of his own players like every other coach like a teacher will always come up with favorites scholars in every class. He never made a mistake of disregarding the existence of other intelligent entities he met in the team abinitio. He made do with disciplined players and he excelled. A principle his predecessor couldn't adopt and he failed.

The Big boss has come, he has seen and he has conquered for those who deal with Human Resource let us always remember that what you have made do not matter; who you have make is what matter will Sunday Mba ever forget
Stephen Keshi? May the Soul of the big boss rest in peace.amen
