Leadership and Triathlon

For some time now, I have been following a blog by Enrico Varella, a former international executive in a multinational corporation who now leads and manages a leadership consulting firm. What's unique about the blog "Leadership Lessons from Triathlons" is that Enrico shares the best practices of effective leaders from various industries, and professions as well as how they apply for triathletes. The converse is also true - how lessons learnt from triathlons apply for leadership development.

You know how sport-related blogs can be very focussed at times - and fittingly so. But Enrico manages to bring fresh new perspectives to training and competition. He is very well read, and being a consultant, he also brings first and second hand experiences from his interactions wtih top leaders in various fields and athletes, too.

Great stuff. Read more.
