March Madness
From Basketball to Business
Striving for Greatness! The Best of the Best.
March Madness is a compilation of the best college basketball teams in the world. Some teams are looking to play Cinderella and win their first championship ever. Other teams expect to be in the championship every year. These teams prepare, perform and propel to greatness.
Some businesses are ok with the occasional championship win. These same companies struggle to stay in business because they cannot generate constant cash flow. They don’t prepare, perform and propel to greatness.
Prepare: Great teams prepare by practicing behaviors of greatness! Basketball teams that practice teamwork on offense and defense a habit typically win multiple championships. Companies that develop a team with a habit of focusing on the customer as a rule generate constant cash flow because the customer knows what to expect at all times.
Perform: The best college basketball teams perform without thinking about what they are doing. The preparation has created a culture of winning and an expectation of teamwork. No one wants to be the person who lets the team down. Small businesses need to create this type of culture to have employees perform without thinking.
Propel: Achieving true greatness requires a lot of sacrifice and hard work. Don’t get me wrong every college team makes sacrifices and they work hard. The perennial champions take it to another level. They seem to be a step faster than their competition. This is what business owners need to strive for when competing in business.
Are you ok with your company being one of the best? Or, are you striving for greatness to be the best of the best?
