Euro Cup 2024: Corporate boardrooms should tune into football

Live Mint  

The market for HR professionals is teeming with trainers, coaches, life hack experts and motivational gurus. Crucial as teams are for enhancing productivity, or accelerating learning, they also play a pivotal role in achieving other corporate aims, like better communication and coordination, crunched delivery timelines and reduced errors. This summer, managers and trainers would do well to observe the Euro 2024 football tournament being played in Germany for some key lessons in team creation and goal orientation. Defender Pepe, for example, is a regular in Portugal’s team, even though he turned 41 a few months ago, an age considered fit for retirement not only from national teams, but also from club football. There is another aspect of international football—and Euro 2024 in particular—that should guide corporate recruitment for leadership teams, especially those swearing allegiance to the credo of diversity, equity and inclusion.
