The parallels between sports and business are undeniable to many leaders. For example, the saying about how an athlete can occasionally win a game, but it takes a team to win a championship resonates with Brian Adams, president and CEO of AdventHealth Central Florida.
In this episode of the Inspiring Wholeness podcast, Adams talks with Matt Carkner, head coach and general manager of the Orlando Solar Bears, about his favorite sport — hockey — and their common approaches to leadership and teamwork.
“One of the things coach and I have in common is we set up goals for the organization that could only be achieved through teamwork. If you can inspire your team around that goal, then those who aren't aligned with it begin to show up in a different way,” Adams said. “When people are bought into the larger goal, that's how you drive teamwork. It's through the vision of them wanting to achieve something they can only achieve together.”
