That's what Max stands for

Values

enthusiasm

All in all, I am a person who is easily inspired. Whether in basketball, music or people. The state of being enthusiastic is my goal, above all to inspire and inspire those around me who want it. That's probably why I'm a trainer, I enjoy helping others to achieve something great together, like winning, rather than trying to win and being front and center.

That's why basketball focuses on an attractive way of playing, because every spectator should experience an afternoon or evening that gives them joy and generates positive emotions in the form of a smile or shouts of joy. And of course that also applies to my players. If I manage to radiate enthusiasm with motivation, hopefully that will also infect the team on the field. Because in the end you bring the performance.

That's why my vision: "To inspire players, fans, spectators, press and everyone involved with an attractive and fast full-court team basketball with aggressive defense as an energizer"

Performance

In order to be able to radiate enthusiasm at all, it is simply important to do the right job. For every training session or game, I aim to give everything and constantly improve. In my opinion, this is the only way something good or even great can come about. And I also demand this willingness to perform from the players or those involved.

Whether it's training, planning or preparing presentations, I have high expectations of myself. But at the same time I've learned that I can't influence everything. There are better opponents, injured players or different expectations from companies. But I always try to do my best and improve with joy.

empathy

Empathy is probably my value, which, in addition to my crazy ideas, supports me the most in being able to coach men or simply very good players at this young age. In my opinion, having a good and deep connection to my fellow human beings, understanding them and including their own needs in everything creates a good bond and trusting relationship between the players, clients and me.

I am simply interested in my fellow human beings, their feelings, problems and thoughts. For example, there are players who want to go to a higher league, or others have had a lot of bad experiences with their coaches, or privately, there is something that prevents them from doing something. The more I am interested in my fellow human beings and their emotional world, the more individually I can deal with them.

Even if my goal is professional basketball, people are and will remain the most important thing.

creativity

I love imagining and creating new things. A crazy new basketball concept here, drills there, podcast over there, or a new kind of music.

Often I just do my things differently or creatively. But it supports me on my way, fulfills me and is somehow the basis for the upper values.

curiosity

I always annoy my poor fellow human beings with many questions that interest me and for which I still have no answer.
During the Corona period, I discovered my passion for non-fiction books. And devoured 70 since then. Mostly my curiosity comes from new ideas. If I want to implement them, I simply need more knowledge.

And above all, the world offers so much that is new and interesting. There are so many inspiring people with their very own stories. And what should I say. I'm just curious about it. Maybe you can, if you want, experience it yourself ;P. I'm curious about what drives them, what ideas they have, where they perform and what inspires them or will inspire them, or what their hidden potential is.
