Bochy Ball! The Chemistry of Winning and Losing in Baseball, Business, and Life

Business leaders can draw from the insights and apply the wisdom that turned the failing San Francisco Giant's franchise into a $2B force, with three World Championship titles in five years.

You do NOT have to be a baseball fan or sports addict to learn from Bochy Ball. You do have to be a person who wants to borrow from what great leadership looks like in the best and worst of times! How does that translate to today's business leaders?

The Giant's success is based upon clubhouse culture, team chemistry, and a championship mindset, all things every business can gain from. Top CEO's understand that an intentional approach to company culture and a willingness to nurture a "champion's mindset" in each of their employees is vital to their organization's success.

Keynote Takeaways:

• Why team chemistry is hard to emulate and compete with.
• Culture counts—recruit people to an environment, not a business.
• Finding great talent, developing great talent, getting talent to gel.
• Leadership characteristics of a three-time world champion coach.
• Getting your players to own it.
• Managerial courage: Great coaches aren’t afraid to have the tough, uncomfortable conversations.

You will get a highly customized keynote that wraps countless lessons from Bochy Ball around your team's performance goals and your meeting objectives.
