Life Map

During a recent Nations of Coaches Character Coach Connection Zoom meeting, our Character Coach for Auburn University Basketball, Jeremy Napier, shared a resource called a Life Map.

One of the highlights of the Map is the process of having each team member tell their stories. Here's an excerpt from the top of the one-page document.


A Life Map is an autobiography – the story of your life. It is not, however, a comprehensive biography. A Life Map should focus on 6 main areas. The goal is to share meaningful information with your peers.

1) Heritage/History

2) Heroes

3) High Times

4) Hard Times

5) Hand of God

6) Honeys


Few things do more to help develop a team's sense of community better than giving them permission and direction to share their personal experiences with each other. Please consider using this or a similar tool in serving your teams.
