After an initial failure as a small-town high school track coach, Harvey Dean, Ed.D, CEO and founder of the STEM education leader Pitsco, Inc., found a fundamental key that gave his team another chance at success. When he used the key to unlock the potential of each runner, his ordinary and inexperienced athletes became state champions in just three years. The key, Dean says, is a system that transfers the locus of responsibility to the team. In any organization, when the locus of responsibility is moved from the coach to the player, from the teacher to the student, and from management to employees, exceptional achievement follows.
