Strategist vs. Chemist

Sports and business are a lot alike. Some of the best coaches in history were not the best strategist, but rather the best chemist. They knew team chemistry was more important to success than individual talent or even X's and O's. They knew how to get everyone pulling in the same direction toward a common goal.

Unfortunately, most business strategy often neglects team building and focuses more on profits. But profits are like wins, a by-product of great chemistry.
"Synergy comes before strategy." - John Calipari, head coach of the University of Kentucky Wildcats, 2012 NCAA Men's Basketball National Champions
