Hoopspeak takes the language of basketball and aligns it with leadership concepts, ideas, examples, and Julia’s interpretation of how leadership and basketball come together. Imagine saying things like… I am going to throw a bounce pass to Edwardo today because he needs a layup (quick success). I am calling a timeout because I am sensing that everyone is weary from all the overtime we have put in working on this project. We are so far behind on this initiative; we need to apply a full-court press.
And…everyone understands! Basketball is a language. Ask any basketball player. Creating a language for things makes it feel more real. It is the same concept as an inside joke or a silly phrase
The Xs and the Os are the strategies behind the terminology. Julia wanted to create an all-encompassing language that is simple to read and understand.
