Building Coaching Skills in Business Managers
TEAMS THAT WIN teaches business management using the sport of basketball as a model to describe a system and structure that enables empowerment, accountability and teamwork in the business environment.
It also addresses the crucial element of the system:
the manager taking on the role of coach. This role
differs significantly from the functions of the organizational
manager in yesterday’s traditional hierarchy.
But for the Teams That Win approach
to be truly effective, the manager must learn and
live these “manager
as coach” behaviors.
The concepts presented
here are not new to management theory. What
is new is the use of basketball as
a model to make these
concepts easier to see, understand and implement.
