Management By Baseball
The Official Rules for Winning Management in Any Field
Author and management consultant Jeff Angus discusses his best selling book Management By Baseball, and how baseball experience can help your business, as my internet radio show guest on Blog Business Success. The show airs live on Thursday, October 19, at 8:00 pm Eastern Time.
You will learn the following to hit home runs in your business:
* How to assemble your team cost effectively (like Billy Beane of the Oakland A's)
* How to best position them so they can succeed (like Joe Torre of the New York Yankees)
* How to use ideas from another industry in yours (like Branch Rickey with the old Brooklyn Dodgers)
* How to be the best you can be regardless of circumstances (like Ichiro Suzuki of the Seattle Mariners)
