Leadership is a skill that is learned, practiced, developed and refined over time. We can all become better leaders by tapping into the unlimited power of collaboration, confidence, and creativity.Sports history is full of stories of underdogs rising to the occasion. Remember how Greece beat heavy favorites Portugal in the UEFA EURO final in 2004? Rewind even further, and you’ll recall the ‘Miracle on Ice’ with the U.S. men’s hockey team winning gold at the 1980 Winter Olympics.Why do some teams manage to achieve the impossible? How do certain entrepreneurs build unicorn start-ups from scratch?The answer lies in good leadership. We’re tempted to explain success with All Star players, but a single MVP won’t win you the game. You need a team of versatile talent and great leadership to tie it all together and steer the team to success.A balanced leadership style takes practice on an individual level, but organizations need to learn, too. Practice creates consistency and consistency gets you results. This is the not-so-secret formula of any high-performing team – on and off the field.
