Take-home message
Do you feel that you are evaluated based on your victories and defeats? Do you live and work in an environment that stops you from being able to accept your failures? After having worked for almost thirty years as a basketball trainer, Pam Borton confirms that there is not much difference between managing a sports’ role or that of a company. Every game and every experience at work comes with the same feelings. What a good leader needs to do is to focus on the process, on what happens before and after the result of a transaction, on the people that make up the team, dealing with problems in a cool, calm manner.
