RICHMOND has appointed the man who helped facilitate Geelong's 2007 turnaround that ended in premiership glory, leadership consultant Gerard Murphy.

Murphy, a Leading Teams founder and highly credentialed consultant who worked with the Cats periodically from the first of their three premiership years until the end of last season, started at Punt Road last week.

He will work with the club's players and coaches as a part-time consultant and will assist in the assembly of the 2015 leadership group.

Why? Because he's from Geelong? Bomber Thompson is from Geelong and so is "The Missile". Are we going to applaud them if Richmond bring them to the club?
I've heard Leading Teams program is overrated.
I'd like to know more about the substance of this appointment- part time consultants are risky - and expensive.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

I'm sceptical about the whole concept myself -reeks of flakey Dr.Phil pop psychology bollocks and for every Geelong there's probably a dozen Footscrays- but the club already uses Leading Teams; brought it in last year I think. Would've likely been under the LT model that they all had a crack at Cotchin for not being a demanding enough captain and Hardwick for not being harder on them as coach.

Leading teams has worked really well for some clubs and not at all for others-  just depends on the dynamic at a particular club.

didn't rfc bring in leading teams for one season a few years back, only to hole them because they were unhappy with their methodology?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
