People always make a similarity between football and fighting a war. You might remember George Carlin making connections between how football is played and how wars’ are fought.

“In football the object is for the quarterback, also known as the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his receivers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line”. George Carlin

I think there can be a simile made between football and business. They both are very goal oriented. Football’s goal is to score point and business’ goal is to score dollars. Both have many different kinds of players on the team. But if either doesn’t have a plan of action before starting a game, they fail.

In both football and business, along the way the game plan has to be altered and changed. But both are still on the same constant mission. In football they’re mission is to make it to the Championship. In business…well, in business, we have many different kinds of mission statement. Each business’ mission statement is created around its own goals.

Have you looked at your business’ or organizations’ mission statement lately? Maybe it’s time to do that. Reacquaint yourself and your team with that mission statement. Check and see if you’re adhering to the statement or that maybe you need to rewrite the statement.
