Matt Fanslow and Chris Jones, editor for Ratchet+Wrench and Endeavor Business Media, discuss the similarities between sports and business, focusing on talent development, leadership, and team dynamics. The conversation covers the importance of creating a winning culture, being open to new opportunities, and the impact of long-term thinking versus short-term decisions.
