What leaders can learn from decisive umpires
“You argue with the umpire because there is nothing else you can do about it.”
Leo Durocher, baseball player/manager/humorist
In my youth, I enjoyed coaching kids’ sports and shaping the minds and attitudes of young athletes. Baseball is one of those fabulous teacher’s aids. As part of the recreation department experience, I also had to umpire and referee games. That was a far more difficult duty, and not only because of the avid (or rabid) parents in the stands.
