Four pieces of content I've consumed this past week that will influence my future blog material and challenge me to think differently about how I manage Cressey Sports Performance. As always, I'm looking to bring you some business-specific information from outside of the world of fitness. Enjoy:
- Why You Need a Mentor (podcast) - This episode of the EntreLeadership podcast featured two heavy hitter guests (Mark Burnett & Kevin Harrington) and highlighted an immensely important component of the entrepreneur's journey. I especially
liked the concept of "contagious proximity" mentioned throughout the episode.
- 4 Remote Practices I’ve Learned Inspire Creativity in My Team - Don't skip this one if your brick and mortar business is back to fully on-site training. While meant to help the telecommuting world, all four of the pieces of
advice in this piece will bring value to your in-person workforce development as well.
- How to Scale a Successful Pilot Project - Plenty of gym owners successfully pivoted to an online service offering during the 2020 pandemic lockdowns. Some of you did so with the mindset that the move was a temporary stopgap meant to ensure survival, while
others have intentions of keeping it alive indefinitely as a significant revenue stream in the months and years to come. You'll likely take some value away from this HBR piece if you fall into the latter category.
Make sure to let me know if you come across any material that you think I'd enjoy. More importantly, have a great weekend.
