The similarities between a high-level athlete and a business leader
In sport as in business, reaching the high level is the result of individual and collective performance. These two worlds are much closer than you think!
Like a professional athlete, the business manager must know how to surround himself with a solid and united team to win each challenge put in his path (or competition in the case of the athlete). Not to mention his own stress management as well as that of his team! To do this, the business leader must ensure that his professional entourage is prepared to calmly face any kind of challenge with an explosive team spirit.
Another point in common! All this preparation draws its inspiration from the mentality of champions with an impeccable lifestyle in order to always be efficient. Managing a business like training an athlete is done every day at all hours and does not stop at the end of a working day. Rest, nutrition and even the environment in which they live are essential for success.
Last but not least, business leaders and high-level athletes know how to accept and transform failures. This is what drives their success! Failures reinforce learning and questioning to work in a better way and get straight to success!
