Business & Sport - Common Success Factors
Insights, Parallels and Analogies about closing Gaps

People - Countries

Cultures

​

I have been working in international sales for many years, where one thing in particular fascinates me: connecting people and markets across the boarder.

​

Travelling is not only a passion of mine in my private life, but also a key to understanding cultures, building trust and forming lasting relationships in my professional life.

Goal - Focus

Discipline

 

My sporting career as a track and field athlete - culminating in my participation in the Olympic Games - shaped me.

 

Competitive sports showed me early on what it means to push beyond limits, work consistently towards a goal and maintain discipline and focus even in difficult moments.

 

Key Success Factors

​

 

These qualities continue to shape my professional path today: A well-functioning organisation, a healthy body, determination, mental strength, talent, and supportive environment are not only essential factors for success in sports, but also in business.

 

And above all, you need an excellent coach or manager who wants only one thing: to bring your company and your team to peak performance.

Visions - Strategies

Team

 

In business, especially in sales, as well as in sports, it's all about having visions, pursuing clearly defined goals, developing strategies to achieve them, and delivering full performance at the decisive moment.

 

At the same time, the team behind the success is what counts: partners, colleagues or customers with whom we identify and realise opportunities together.

About Closing Gaps:

 

Top performances must be achieved not only in sports but also in business.

 

It is important to identify and evaluate possible future potential and opportunities, to honestly analyse one's current status and to define the resulting gap .

 

Strategies are developed to gradually reduce this gap between the current situation (status) to the target situation (maximum potential).

 

This is achieved by optimising the factors for success: body, organisation, mind and environment.

 

The Body

The physical performance core:

Is the body of my company or my team capable of delivering high product quality, high productivity, excellent sales, high performance/physical output.

 

The core of a successful company or team...​

​

The Organisation

Is my company/ my club ready to deliver top performance, or are there any deficits in key organisational components that prevent it from achieving top performance in the first place?

 

In the organisation, performance is organized - that is, how the output is created...

The Head

Are my employees/players mentally prepared and mature to deliver top performance, deal with setbacks, handle stress and be resilient?

 

With a high degree of innovation, optimism and confidence, decisiveness and game intelligence...

The Environment

Is it possible for my employees or team members to deliver top performance given my environment, the market, the fans, the customers, the family, etc.)

 

Is the necessary support, inspiration, team spirit, trust, and mutual assistance available?​
