Forget winning or losing. Bestselling author and leadership expert Simon Sinek says the most important thing is to determine what kind of game you’re playing. For example, baseball is a finite game—a game with known players, fixed rules and an agreed-upon objective.

And if that isn’t complicated enough, Simon warns that if you approach business with a finite mind-set, the consequences are disastrous. Tune in to learn the five things you need to have in order to prevent disaster and successfully navigate the infinite game of business.   entreleadership.com/podcast The Infinite Game by Simon Sinek Simon Sinek's website Ken Coleman's website Write a note to Ken The Ken Coleman Show Review this episode for a chance to win a $25 Amazon gift card   Want expert help with your business question?
