What is in common between a professional manager and a yachtsman?
«I guess that the most important coomon factor is communication, and the ability to make quick decisions, which may affect the result of the whole team work. It is sometimes difficult to make those decisions for both highly professional top manager and any member of the yacht crew, especially when it contains strong leaders and highly skilled managers. The ability of co-decision in the short term and effective cooperation - this is what leads our team to victory». |
