Leadership and Football - a worrying survey

A recent Franklin Covey Harris Poll surveyed 23,000 people in key industries and the results were staggering.

If the results from the poll were for a football team, you would end up with the following scenario:

• Only 4 in 11 players know what the objective of the game is
• 7 in 11 players don't know which goal is theirs
• 9 in 11 players don't care
• 9 in 11 don't know what position they play in the team
• Only 1 player feels that the players would be held accountable for the team's performance
• 1 in 11 are actively trying to score goals for the other team

These are truly sobering facts. The resulting organisational cost doesn't even bear thinking about.
