Abstract

In the context of sportsmen and sportswomen in social places, [17] show how high-profile professional athletes experiencing difficulties perpetuate their "athlete" persona. Therefore, the coach must consistently act "like a coach" in the eyes of their players as part of the sporting environment (the setting) in order to establish and maintain the appropriate and expected interaction ([19]). In the context of our paper, it was found that coaches and star athletes and players that are leaders exhibit different types of leadership behaviors ([13]). Halberstam's I Playing for Keeps: Michael Jordan and the world he made i ([9]) was written after Jordan's second retirement and was the first try to take full measure of Jordan's epic career and the larger forces that converged to make him the iconic figure he became.
