The Strategic Genius of Taylor Swift

The Strategic Genius of Taylor Swift | Performance Project | Scoop.it
Swift has displayed such a remarkable ability to innovate—and to make sophisticated strategy and marketing moves—that it’s worth trying to draw lessons from her career, the same way we study traditional business visionaries such as Steve Jobs, Richard Branson, and Jeff Bezos.

So what is the secret to Swift’s long-term success? In my view it can be attributed to four behaviors: targeting untapped markets, finding opportunities to create stickiness, maintaining productive paranoia, and adapting to radical shifts in platforms.

In several ways, the two jobs—CEO and athlete—are highly correlated. Here are five leadership practices of great athletes that business leaders can adapt to their own work.
James Schreier's insight:

The Performance Project focuses on links to the performing arts.  But there have been regular posts connecting to the sports world.  This is a very good one!

Losing sucks…but provides important lessons

The thing about sports is most of the important lessons are from the losing.

Losing a big game or having a bad day on the track.

Losing your spot on the team.

Losing a season because of injury

Losing your passion for a sport you once loved.

 

Winning is way more fun, but losing and learning from it? That's the gold right there.
James Schreier's insight:

This is a good post.  A million years ago, OK just seems like it, my home growing up had a pool table and a ping pong table.  At that point I actually preferred ping pong to pool (probably still do) but I wasn't very good.  Until I decided to start playing almost daily against the "best" of my paper route colleagues.  It took a long, long time for me to finally beat him "occasionally" but he sure made me a much better player!  Thanks for the memories, Mike S.
