It’s the time of year when brackets are filling out, game plans are tightening up, and teams are preparing for the next round. In sports, standing still isn’t an option. If you want to advance, you practice to refine and strengthen weak spots while investing in the right players. In business, it’s no different.
No championship team makes it to the final round by running the exact same plays year after year. They evolve by recruiting talent that fills gaps and strengthens the whole team. Winning organizations operate the same way.
