Publisher's Synopsis
Discussing approaches for transferring sporting tactics to the business world, these scholarly essays explore the ways in which sports industries identify talent and execute and build communication, motivation, leadership, and management and how to apply such strategies to economics. Examining such topics as how association football can act as a model for business, how personal expectancy on sports teams relates to the discretionary efforts of individual members, and how to overcome the Svengali effect in executive coaching, this resource aims to bridge the gap between academic and lay discourses.
