Following this coaching search is like a 7 step grief cycle

[homes]

Except with different emotions. Maybe, something like this:

Excitement - We canned that bum!
Optimism - We've got a great job, we'll find a great coach.
Angst - What? He doesn't want the job?
Fear - Crap. Now, no one wants the job.
Anger - Why did we fire so-and-so if this is all we're going to get?
Acceptance - Well, we had to hire someone.
Hope - He'll do fine (we're pretty sure).

Wow... this actually works pretty well. Good Post sir!

Yes. Quite an intuitive look. Maybe one more dimension: Grief - Pass the beer and/or doobie

I'd say it's a grieving process that may occur several times over in the process!

I seem to cycle through these 7 steps about every 120 minutes....

I didn't know they added extra steps to the grief cycle. I remember the 5: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance.

Either way, I think we are following that pretty smoothly. We are firmly trenched in the depression step. Sometimes, people never leave that step...

bump

Nothing has changed...a lot. Cycles. We have reached acceptance in at least being in contention to relevance as opposed to...what it became

Not sure if they added extra steps, but Anger has Francon substeps.
