Doing Relationship Basics Matters

OG Anunoby makes game winning shot following basics of going to the rim (Vincent Carchietta/Imagn/Reuiters)

The shooting skill, size, height, and speed of today’s NBA players is unworldly.   However, ultimately what won this game was doing the basics, while losing the game was due to ignoring them.   The first 5 seconds of this video says it all.  OG Anunoby inbounded the pass.  Nobody guarded him.  (Spurs fail in the basics)  He went right to the rim! (basics done).  Knicks WIN!

The same is true in organizational relationships of any form.   You have to do the basics.  If you do them consistently.  You WIN.
