Management and Sports Coaches
How do you measure the success of top athletes?
Number of scores, the number of games won or the end of year premiership trophy?
Coaches have statistics on each player’s achievements and performance.
Its difficult in professional sports to coach on the field. The coach is like senior management and finds it best to coach from a distance where he / she can observe and direct the action.
So it is with the managing a company.
Just like a Coach, Management needs to see individual statistics for every staff member.
Why?
By stating exactly what each staff member is supposed to produce and inspecting whether or not they actually know what this is and if it is actually happening, a great deal can be learned, and management can be very effective.
As a Coach, if your players and athletes understand where they have gone wrong they are much more likely to learn from their mistakes and strive to improve and not fail again in the future.
Likewise when a team or athlete wins, a good coach will obviously celebrate the achievement. This encourages teams and individuals to remain dedicated to always improving and not becoming complacent.
