John Woods explains that in his coaching career he was very comfortable leading his players. As a new Athletic Director, he realized he had no idea how to lead adults. As he grew and matured as an AD, he discovered the MVP process which stands for the mission, vision, and core principles that identify who we are, where we are going, and how we are going to get there. It is important to involve the stakeholders within your department to determine the MVP process that will become the blueprint for your athletic department's legacy.
