As the proud partner of Scottish Athletics FPSG understands that
commitment, passion, discipline and dedication are all qualities
which are possessed by top athletes. As the recruitment partner of
choice for some of the biggest brands in the world we are also
aware how these traits cross over to the workplace to make
successful recruitment teams.
In this article I will look at some of the qualities required at
any level of sport and how we at FPSG utilise them to ensure the
success of our clients on a consistent basis.
Dedication
Dedication is an extremely important trait in sports and the
workplace. For example the millionaire professional footballer
staying behind after training to practice free kicks or the athlete
committing to a strict training and diet regime for several months,
their success is ultimately down to dedication and hard work. The
same is true in the workplace. Showing dedication and working late
to achieve deadlines and deliver on time is a regular
occurrence.
Teamwork
On how many occasions have the underdogs overcome huge odds to
achieve the unexpected? In the Olympic Games in Athens, 2004 The
Great Britain Relay Team overcame massive odds to beat the American
Relay Team, considered the hot favourites. In the 100m finals
America won Gold, Silver and Bronze. Yet with teamwork involved on
the baton passes the Brits produced a flawless round to take the
Gold and prove that teamwork can overcome talent. This is hugely
true in the workplace, where teams with a solid structure, common
goals and commitment towards teamwork can achieve huge things
Organisational Skills
Teamwork, dedication and hard work are not as effective
without a clear, concise and strategic approach. In sports the team
'coach' or manager will plan and set the strategy for the team to
win. Each individual needs to organise themselves effectively to
provide maximum efficiency. The same is true at work. Teams and
individuals need to be organised to achieve the best results!
