"I don't play golf, but I watched the recent Ryder Cup unfold and was struck by how Europe's team appeared more supportive and united than America's. Were there lessons that I as a business owner could take from this, or is sport just different?"
"I agree. Europe's teamwork stole the show in New York. The tournament did offer lessons that apply to many aspects of business; not just teamwork, but also leadership, resilience, focus, preparation, and the value of purpose."
Europe's Ryder Cup team showed strong unity, visible support among teammates, and collective focus that generated momentum and confidence. Teamwork included mutual encouragement, strategic pairings, and prioritizing team goals over individual ego. Leadership provided clarity, steady decision-making, and reinforcement of roles that sustained cohesion. Resilience emerged in recovery from setbacks and consistent performance under pressure. Focused preparation produced reliable execution and adaptability across changing conditions. A shared purpose aligned individual actions with team objectives, amplifying the impact of each contribution and producing performance advantages applicable to business teams.
