Being able to accept criticism properly is vital to your success in any job

Constructive Criticism!!!

This is criticism presented in a way that helps you learn and grow.

It’s often given during performance reviews or evaluations

It may come up in conversations during work activities

17 What Makes Criticism Constructive?

Many supervisors will offer positive comments before offering criticism

If your boss is abrupt when making suggestions, focus on the advice given so that you can grow
professionally

Criticism is easier to handle when you see it as being helpful

Some employees welcome criticism because it teaches them better ways to succeed at their job

Ask for help if you’re overwhelmed

Use a daily “To Do” list

Prioritize your duties


If you have two supervisors, make sure your priorities are clear

Gossip is idle talk that usually consists of rumors

It is usually untrue and hurtful

Gossip hopes the gossiper as well, the more often an employee gossips, the less coworkers will trust
them

Before you join in gossiping, ask yourself:

What’s my motivation for gossiping?

Could my comments unfairly damage some one else’s reputation?

~ Do Unto Others as you would have done to you~

1. www.candobasketball.co.uk 1 CONSISTENCY The coaches “catchphrase”

2. www.candobasketball.co.uk2 CONSISTENCY In today´s modern game of basketball, the word that


is heard before, during and after each game by participants, media and spectators is “CONSISTENCY”
What does “CONSISTENCY” mean?

3. www.candobasketball.co.uk3 CONSISTENCY Consistency is the correct interpretation of situations


and the correct application of decisions in officiating. In many cases, the spirit and intent of the rules
may be more important than the actual rule.

4. www.candobasketball.co.uk4 CONSISTENCY Applying the spirit and intent of the rules is


determined by the official´s “feel for the game”. FEEL FOR THE GAME is doing WHAT is right for the
game, at that moment, that particular play in that game. It is not WHO is right but WHAT is right for
the game.

5. www.candobasketball.co.uk5 CONSISTENCY Being consistent requires officials to be: BRAVE


(showing courage, not fear) HONEST (no favour to either team) DECISIVE (clear, immediate calls) A
TEAM (calling the same way)

6. www.candobasketball.co.uk6 CONSISTENCY Factors creating consistency: Excellent team


communication 1. Pre-game conference. 2. Eye contact. 3. Verbal/non-verbal communication. 4.
Same philosophy in calling.

7. www.candobasketball.co.uk7 CONSISTENCY Factors creating consistency: Excellent participant


communication. 1. Dialogue with coaches/players. 2. Being approachable. 3. Firm and fair 4. Giving
and receiving respect.

8. www.candobasketball.co.uk8 CONSISTENCY Applying consistency with regard to specific criteria:


1. CONTACT- (Post play, fast break, 1 v 1, rebounding, charge/block)- was the player dislodged,
displaced or dispossessed unfairly?

9. www.candobasketball.co.uk9 CONSISTENCY a. Did the defensive player establish an initial legal


guarding position? b. Was the principle of verticality respected? c. Did either player illegaly use arms,
legs or other body parts? d. Was there any flopping/acting?

10. www.candobasketball.co.uk10 CONSISTENCY 2. UNSPORTSMANLIKE FOULS a. Was the criteria


correctly applied? b. Was it a genuine attempt to play the ball? c. Was the contact excessive or
dangerous?

11. www.candobasketball.co.uk11 CONSISTENCY 3. TECHNICAL FOULS a. Was the pre-game criteria


applied by all the officials? b. Were the officials firm but fair? c. Was the situation handled with quiet
authority? d. Did the officials´team cooperate?

12. www.candobasketball.co.uk12 CONSISTENCY 4. ACT OF SHOOTING FOULS. a. Was the correct


criteria applied? b. When did the foul occur? c. Was the player in the act of shooting? d. Had the ball
come to rest? e. Was the motion continuous?

13. www.candobasketball.co.uk13 CONSISTENCY f. Was the ball released or still in the hand? g. Was
the player in the air or had he returned to the floor? h. Did the shooting player “spread” his legs to
create contact with his opponent?

14. www.candobasketball.co.uk14 CONSISTENCY Consequences of “INCONSISTENCY” 1. Referees not


working consistently as individuals or as a team will create: a. Confusion about what is legal or
illegal. b. Frustration for the players/coaches. c. This will lead to lack of respect and confrontation.
15. www.candobasketball.co.uk15 CONSISTENCY Factors supporting consistency: a.Correct analysis
of the play or situation. b.Correct understanding of what has actually happened in the play or
situation. c. Applying basketball knowledge and experience as an individual and/or as part of a team.

16. www.candobasketball.co.uk16 CONSISTENCY d. Knowing that sometimes the best call could be a
“no-call”. e. Using “preventative” officiating, talking to players/coaches to avoid the infraction. f.
Using your “presence” and respect to promote professionalism.

17. www.candobasketball.co.uk17 CONCLUSION Dealing with the modern catchphrase of


“consistency” is an intergral part of the official´s role on the court. It is essentially a “human”
perspective on performance and behaviour on and off the court. It is about ethics, integrity, honesty,
fairness and having self-confidence.
