From the many business owners and executives I speak with on the golf course, they’re constantly searching and investing in programs to improve leadership, build team synergy and promote service excellence. Leadership development and quality service clearly create significant impacts on organizations across many sectors. Having recently attended the Disney Institute Quality Service training program, I found myself inspired by the ideas and processes in place to attract millions of raving fans each year. As the hours of training continued through the day, I thought of popular sports that could have a significant impact on leadership, confidence, perseverance, and strategy, and soon realized that leadership skills can be developed by playing a game enjoyed by millions around the world. Golf. For organizations who need to improve their leadership and customer service, powerful lessons can be learned on the fairways and greens, with much broader implications in the boardroom.
