The Kelce brothers were the subject of a recent Sports Illustrated article highlighting their different personalities and revealing how their approach to the game was aligned.

“Formula for winning – passion, leadership, curiosity, smarts, love.”

• Passion. Exhibiting passion distinguishes the Kelces. They approach every practice with high energy. They don’t take plays off. Their passion is contagious. Others step up their game because of them.
• Leadership. The Kelce brothers do more than lead by example. They speak up. They hold teammates accountable. They maintain the high standards necessary to succeed and ensure the rest of the team succeeds.
• Curiosity. The status quo isn’t good enough. Their careers have been marked by improvement each year. They credit their discipline to “always inquire and observe how to better themselves.”
• Smarts. Their curiosity leads to them becoming experts in their field. Their intuition is honed. They see things others don’t see. They make moves that aren’t apparent to others. Their knowledge of their trade sets them apart.
• Love. They care genuinely about their teammates. The special sauce is the capacity to know and care about each other on your team. Where there’s no unconditional love and caring, the Kelces believe there is no chance to win.

Their combination of traits is powerful. Do they apply to the teams you’re on?
