		Although as a coach Mike Krzyzewski has to direct the players to a certain extent, he does not do so in such a manner as to produce a low-relationship style as prescribed in the Directive leadership model.
		In comparing Mike Krzyzewski’s leadership style with both Blake and Mouton’s leadership grid and the Hersey-Blanchard situational leadership model, it is apparent that Coach K does not believe in adjusting his style to conform to his followers as proposed by the aforementioned models.
		Mike Krzyzewski’s success at Duke is a product of hard work, dedication and unyielding high standards both on and off the basketball court.

		COACH MIKE KRZYZEWSKI: Usually there's like one game is better than the other, and then the winner of the harder game has the disadvantage for the next.
		Everybody who's a fourth- or fifth-year guy and has paid their dues and probably sat a little bit on the bench, played a subordinate role then became a starter and all of a sudden, you know, he had a great career, they didn't skip any steps.
		It's really one of the changes I'd love for the tournament is the regional games, the opening round games, if you play the late game on the East Coast, if you're in that time zone where it is actually ten o'clock, that they should give you at least a half hour of preparation.
