WHAT BASEBALL HAS TAUGHT ME ABOUT
COUNTY LEADER EXPECTATIONS
BASEBALL IS ONE OF THE FEW SPORTS
THAT MIRRORS REAL LIFE:
IT IS LONG, DRAWN OUT, FILLED
WITH BOREDOM AND EXCITEMENT,
REPEATED FAILURES AND
GREAT LESSONS ON LEADERSHIP.
JON HENRY
EXPECT A WINNING SEASON
EVERY DAY IS A NEW OPPORTUNITY. YOU CAN
BUILD ON YESTERDAY’S SUCCESS OR PUT ITS
FAILURES BEHIND AND START OVER AGAIN.
THAT’S THE WAY LIFE IS, WITH A NEW GAME
EVERYDAY, AND THAT’S THE WAY BASEBALL IS.
BOB FELLER
WORK AS A TEAM
BASEBALL IS A SIMPLE GAME.
IF YOU HAVE GOOD PLAYERS AND YOU KEEP
THEM IN THE RIGHT FRAME OF MIND, THEN THE
MANAGER IS A SUCCESS.
SPARKY ANDERSON
KEEP COOL UNDER PRESSURE
IMAGINE IF YOU HAD BASEBALL CARDS THAT HELD
ALL THE PERFORMANCE STATS FOR YOUR PEOPLE:
BATTING AVERAGES, HOME RUNS, ERRORS,
WIN/LOSS RECORDS. YOU COULD SEE WHAT THEY
DID WELL AND POORLY AND CALL ON THE RIGHT
PEOPLE TO PLAY THE RIGHT POSITIONS IN A VERY
TRANSPARENT WAY.
RAY DALIO
SHOWCASE YOUR TEAM
THE BIGGEST THING IS TO HAVE A SWAGGER
WHEN YOU TAKE THE FIELD. WHEN YOU’RE
NOT GOING WELL, YOU HAVE TO CHANGE
SOMETHING – THE BIGGEST THING IS THE WAY
YOU CARRY YOURSELF. YOU HAVE TO WALK
LIKE YOU BELONG WITH THE BEST, GO UP TO
THE PLATE LIKE YOU KNOW YOU BELONG WITH
THE BEST. THAT’S SWAGGER.
BRUCE BOCHY
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF
MAINTAIN LIFE - WORK (BASEBALL) BALANCE
WORK WITH NEW AND UNFAMILIAR PEOPLE
THE BETTER YOU ARE, THE MORE FUN IT IS
THE ORGANIZATION MUST UNDERSTAND THE GAME
LEADERSHIP, LIKE BASEBALL,
HAS THE POWER TO TRANSFORM
