Doing What It Takes for a Team Win
It’s easy to win games with good players. It’s easy to have successful projects with great workers, but in the end a team or a business that can win without the superstars has reached a level of success seen by few. A great team has players or workers that care more about the team than they do for individual attention.

Can MicroStart Have a Significant Impact on Policy and the Environment for Microfinance?
MicroStart programs establish an action-oriented framework for bringing key players together to learn about microfinance development. These players include government policy makers, private sector actors (potential social entrepreneurs or financiers), MFIs, and other donors.

Imagine a Bigger Market and You'll See a Bigger Market
Scientists in two studies at the University of Virginia discovered that softball players and golfers who had good days perceived balls and golf holes as larger than the players who had bad days. The question is, Did this difference in perception cause the player to have better days or did the day's performance cause the players to perceive the ball and holes as bigger?

Synergy, The Power of the Flock
What happens when a group of players with mediocre talent outperforms a team of superstars? Just because you have a group of players playing together doesn’t mean they’re a team. “It’s easy to get the players. Getting them to play together, that’s the hard part,” said Casey Stengel, the former great New York Yankee manager.

How to Analyze a Competitor’s Website

Team Excellence Second Ingredient - The Right People

Dumb Jocks … Or Smart Athletes?
We all know the stereotype. The great athlete didn't spend much time honing his intellectual skills; instead, all of his efforts were spent on the athletic field and thus, he tends to be lacking in the brains department. Like all stereotypes, this idea does not encompass all athletes, but still seems to be pervasive, especially among football players, where we all chuckle about the easy courses they take in college, etc. For example, it seems like 90 % of football players are Sociology majors, often the easiest curriculum at the university. However, some new research cited in Scientific American is stereotype breaking.

Hiring is tough!
For the past 15 months I have been in an aggressive hiring mode. Some months more aggressive then others, but overall it has been a daily grind. Despite the weak economy I am still having a hard time finding A players. A friend of mine that also looks for a constant flow of candidates once told me that A players never got fired, laid off, or go jobless. At first I dismissed that but more and more over time I started to realize that this is the case.

The Bozo Explosion
It's worth 4 minutes to read Guy Kawasaki's "What I learned from Steve Jobs." He lists 12 lessons not to be lost or forgotten -- worthy, because unlike other such articles, Guy has been inside the tent and experienced first hand what it was like to work with Jobs (he was the chief evangelist of Apple). I particularly like lesson #9 -- A players hire A+ players. This is precisely why hiring the right people is still your most important leadership skill.
