In this week’s podcast, Mike and Ryan discuss one of New Zealand’s most successful and beloved organizations: The All Blacks. While most don’t associate a rugby team with business, the All Blacks are very much a business organization, whose product happens to be a sport. Their huge successes over the years, and right now with their successes in the 2019 Rugby World Cup, makes it a great organization to study and learn from in a business context.
Mike and Ryan talk especially about the impact of Devolved Leadership, which is the practice of distributing decision making to on-field leaders instead of leaving all the decisions to a single, top-ranking, detached leader.
In this episode Mike and Ryan also cover:
The All Blacks’ change in coaching culture and how important it was to their current successesThe need for an individual view in coaching while also maintaining a team cultureThe key to the strongest type of leadershipHow business leaders can apply the insights of this podcast to raise their organization to the level of the All BlacksLinks:
