3勝1負的勇士隊如何避免再次被騎士逆轉？Stephen Curry的4個球場絕招，你我可用在職場
金州勇士隊去年總冠軍賽取得3勝1負「聽牌」的優勢後，連輸3場遭克里夫蘭騎士隊逆轉奪冠。今年總冠軍賽剛打完前4場，勇士隊再度取得3勝1負的局面。對於這樣的狀況，柯瑞（Stephen Curry）堅信勇士隊不會重蹈覆轍，再加上去年杜蘭特（Kevin Durant）的加入，勇士隊今年是否能順利奪冠？
創新點：雖然沒有NBA球員先天的體格優勢，柯瑞並不自負，他以團隊為主，努力建立隊友間的默契，創造自己和球隊的成功。
本文4大重點：1. 柯瑞的謙遜與承擔，創造團隊默契。2. 持續努力與學習，是維持領導優勢的最大秘密！3. 不只能讓自己成功，也能幫助他人成長。4. 尋找人生導師，懂得站在巨人的肩膀上。
美國職籃 NBA 中，勇士隊從來就不是一個被看好奪冠的熱門籃球隊伍。40 年來從沒拿過冠軍的勇士隊，卻在隊長柯瑞的帶領下連續3年打入NBA的總決賽。
柯瑞是美國職業籃球運動員，在 2009 年 NBA 選秀中被勇士隊選中成為控球後衛，目前在勇士隊擔任球隊隊長。雖然他的籃球職涯不算資深，但卻已經拿下一次 NBA 總冠軍（2015年）與一次 NBA 年度 MVP（2014-2015），是近期非常熱門的職業籃球選手。也因為柯瑞的相貌可愛討喜，全球粉絲都稱他「萌神」、「娃娃臉刺客」（baby-face assassin）。
放眼美國職業籃球界，壯碩的體型一直是成為卓越籃球員的重要因素。而柯瑞卻沒有這種天生優勢，他平凡的身高與體能，導致沒有一間美國籃球名校願意提供獎學金給他就讀。雖然面臨眾人的歧視，他依舊堅持努力練習球技並在團隊中默默付出。從他的堅持努力、勇士隊的團隊合作，我們可以看見柯瑞與眾不同的團隊管理風格。眾人眼中勇士隊絢麗的籃球手法，背後其實是柯瑞獨特的領導風格。

1.柯瑞的謙遜與承擔，創造團隊默契
相比騎士隊隊長詹姆士（LeBron James）在球場上不斷展現個人的單打獨鬥的球技風格，柯瑞更傾向用自身球技去串連團隊，展開攻勢。
出神入化的運球技巧、令人訝異的精準遠投、視野廣闊的絕妙傳球，這些都是柯瑞在籃球迷談話中津津樂道的熱門話題。從他絢麗的籃球技法，大家以為他是個放蕩不羈、才華洋溢的籃球員，但其實他是個面對工作時謙虛有禮、對待每一場比賽皆全力以赴的認真小夥子。

在他2015年成為 MVP 的演講中，柯瑞曾對著全世界說出他心中的想法。他認為勇士隊的每個成員都是讓他能成為 MVP 的重要一份子。也許他這種能把自身榮譽與團隊一起分享的謙虛精神是來自於他小時候的家庭教育。
柯瑞在這場演講中說著他童年的故事，「我依稀記得，當時我無法參加中學第一次的籃球比賽，原因是我沒有好好把家事做完。當我在球場跟隊友解釋不能參加的原因時，我很尷尬地說：『因為我沒有洗碗』」。柯瑞從小的家庭教育使他能認真負責對待每一件事情，不管是孩子眼中不重要的家事，還是心中熱愛的籃球比賽，他都會全力以赴去面對。
柯瑞這樣的謙遜與負責的態度正是他現今能在球場上成為一個傑出領導者的原因。謙遜對待每個團隊成員、勇於承擔隊長職責的負責態度，讓勇士隊能培養其他籃球隊無法比擬的默契。這種個性讓柯瑞成為一位充滿自信且富有同情心的球隊領導者。
2. 持續努力與學習，是維持領導優勢的最大秘密！
過去的體格檢查中，柯瑞在爆發力和其他要素都比職業籃球員還差。報告中認為他的身形體能不能成為一個好的籃球員，他需要更專注於控球的技巧。儘管報告很不樂觀，柯瑞對於籃球的熱愛從不因這些負面原因而被澆熄。
相反地，他專注於可以改變的事情 ─ 自己。從籃球技巧開始再到比賽經驗的磨練，這不屈不饒的奮鬥精神，使他漸漸在各個籃球賽中小有名氣。即使到現在他已經是美國職籃中的佼佼者，他還是堅持在體育場中繼續磨練他的球技。
這種持續努力的精神在商業界也是非常重要。全球知名企業領導人─臉書創辦人祖克伯（Mark Zuckerberg），2009年開始每年都會公布自己一個新年挑戰，希望用不同的目標讓自己不斷學習。而最讓華人津津樂道的是，他2010 年的學習目標竟然是每天學中文。不管執行長的行程有多繁忙，他還能每天撥出一小時的時間學中文。他認為，學習語言跟其他事情不同，語言不只要搞懂而是必須每天不斷練習。這讓他現在的中文程度比他的華裔妻子高出許多。透過柯瑞和祖克伯，我們了解到真正的領導者並不是看他過去多麼成功，持續努力與學習才是維持領導優勢的最大秘密。
3.不只能讓自己成功，也能幫助他人成長
柯瑞曾在演講中提到他的隊友德雷蒙德·格林（Draymond Green），柯瑞認為他是勇士隊中最真實的精神代表。此外，他也讚揚另一位隊友 哈里森 ·巴恩斯（Harrison Barnes ）的智慧是讓勇士隊能成功的催化劑。柯瑞也坦承去年杜蘭特的加入無疑提升了勇士隊整體的能力，再加上杜蘭特的幽默感，讓勇士隊變得更活潑。

從這些言論，都可以看出柯瑞很認真地看待每一個隊員的差異，並且把每種差異都變成勇士隊成功的優勢。運用每個人的優勢互相學習成長並且達成目標，這是身為成功領導人必須學會的事情。柯瑞表現出的領導風格，並不只能讓自己成功，也能幫助他人成長。
不管是在籃球隊還是企業，領導的本質是相同的。哈佛大學教授塔爾．班夏哈（Tal Ben-Shahar）曾在他「正向領導學」的課程中強調，領導必須先從自己開始，認真聆聽、觀察他人優勢是每個領導者必須先培養的習慣。班夏哈認為，「將焦點放在尋找自己與員工的優勢，這是正向領導學最重要的步驟，」當員工的潛能被激發，進而找到工作價值。這樣不管是對於企業還是團隊向心力都有很大的幫助。
4. 尋找人生導師，懂得站在巨人的肩膀上
此外，柯瑞也了解到不管是在比賽技巧還是體能訓練，成功都需要不同導師在人生各階段幫忙。當柯瑞還是青少年時，他就跟隨私人教練一對一地訓練控球以及走位，這些刻苦銘心的練習也是他能成為卓越籃球運動員的原因。他認為我們必須找到一個適合自己的導師，透過導師的教導，讓自己能用更不一樣的視野重新審視身邊習以為常的世界，進而使自己變成更好的人。
「尋找人生導師」這樣的好方法，維珍集團創辦人布蘭森也極度認同，他認為邁向創業成功的第一步就是尋找一位適合的良師益友。他決心踏入門檻極高的的航空業之前，曾被許多業界人士認為是自殺行為。但多虧有萊克航空公司(Laker Airways)的創始人弗雷迪爵士(Sir Freddie Laker)對布蘭森指點，最終才可以讓維珍航空在航空產業擁有一定的地位。而弗雷迪的務實管理智慧也深深影響布蘭森，讓他在後續的企業經營都有弗雷迪的身影存在。
一個領導者成功背後，通常都需要許多的導師幫助。懂得站在巨人的肩膀上看世界，拓展視野後繼續努力使自己成長茁壯，這才是領導人成功的方法。

從柯瑞的故事中，我們會發現他謙虛的個性、不屈不饒的奮鬥精神、總能看到他人優勢的獨特眼光再加上人生導師們的幫忙，這些都是他能在劣勢下走出自己道路的秘訣。在美國職業籃球界能成為頂尖運動員不再是蠻橫硬上的衝勁，也不是絢麗繁雜的技巧，最重要的是你可不可以堅持你的內心所愛，為了夢想持續努力、勇往直前。現在就去實踐柯瑞的團隊領導心法吧，你也可以像柯瑞一樣成為產業界的頂尖明星！

AOL’s Tim Armstrong explains how he spent his first 100 days as CEO
AOL “was something that everyone had given up on, but they had a lot of resources, a lot of users, and they had a lot of talent,” Armstrong told Business Insider US editor in chief Alyson Shontell in an episode of Business Insider’s podcast, “Success! How I Did It.”
He set out to change the company mindset in his first 100 days in the role, visiting employees around the world.
“We did a 100-day process, and I traveled around the whole globe,” Armstrong said. “There were about 10,000 AOL employees at the time, I saw about 9,000 of them in person, and I had three processes I was running: feedback from the entire company and team, feedback from the management team, and then a list I was keeping of things that I thought we should be doing.”
After he compiled the feedback from those three processes, he found an interesting pattern among the responses he got back from employees and management.
He told Shontell:
“After the 100 days, we held a meeting at the Time Warner Center and I put up three whiteboards. On one white board I wrote back the results from the entire global team of what they thought we should invest in.
“I put up a white board of what the management team thought, and I put up a whiteboard of what I thought. I flipped them all around at the same time. Each one had five things on them. All of the white boards were identical, except for one area on the white board that I had flipped around on my personal side.
“So the whole company was already in alignment and I think that got people excited. They weren’t told what the strategy was. They got input, and everyone was on the same path in believing in it.”
