Sports And Business: Feeling Better About That Golf Game!

Now, here's my kind of story.

Curling, the icy sport that involves slowly gliding stones and fast-moving brushes, is helping local companies increase teamwork and communication among employees.

Now, I'm not real fond of the cold. And I'd rather sweep sand off a bentgrass green than ice off a skating rink, but this could be the justification we sports nuts were looking for!

  [Curling] requires verbal communication between the "skipper" -- the team member calling the shots -- and the "vice," "second" and "lead" team members. As any CEO who has ever floated an idea past employees could attest, there are direct parallels between the sport and the art of guiding a business.

So be sure to send along a link to this article the next time you pitch your golf expense account idea to your boss. I mean, a foursome is kind of like teamwork...isn't it?
