Business Problems Solved Podcast Real People, Real Stories, Real Value - Matthew Davies on Obsessions, American Football and Coaching
In the third part of his new mini-series, focussing upon real people with real stories that give real value, Lee talks to Matthew Davies, about his passions in life, and the fascinating overlaps that occur between the world of business and sports
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Sports and the discipline involved in mastering that sport, can aid in making us better leaders and better managers of people.
- Organisations have often seen coaching as a remedial thing, when in fact it should be seen as an ongoing process - a matter of course.
- Connections are far easier built if done with personality, and in some cases, humour. It can help us to create rapport, instant understanding, and allow us to be better understood.
BEST MOMENTS
'I've always filled every minute of my spare time with things'
'It's about your ability to engage and connect with people'
'There are a lot of reluctant leaders in big organisations'
