Indian businessmen and automotive tycoon Anand Mahindra is a prominent voice on social media, sharing several interesting thoughts, clips and innovations with his followers. In his latest post, the Mahindra Group chairman shared a video clip from one of football’s most famous derbies, straight from the English Premier League.
“A lesson in teamwork of course,” wrote Anand Mahindra as he shared the clip of a match between fierce intercity rivals Manchester United and Manchester City. The clip shows precise and patient passing from Manchester City (the team in blue) in order to reach the goal of their opponent. Along with the clip, Mahindra elaborated on what lesson could be taken by startups.
In the clip, the Manchester City team makes a total of 44 passes before finally finding space for a final pass leading to a goal. “A lesson in Teamwork of course. But also an analogy for how a start-up company needs to operate. Success comes not from relentlessly advancing together in one direction but back & forth, trying new angles of approach & then going for the ‘kill’ when the strategic path is clear,” he wrote while sharing the clip. Check it out below:
