With the 2018 World Cup tournament about to meet its climax, the only question which could be heard is “France or Croatia”? With France being a predicted winner from the start, Croatia has turned the table for themselves as well as for the other teams, by upsetting them. Placing their spot for the first time in World Cup finals, the Croatian team has taught us many things which could be adopted by startups for achieving success in their business.
Underdogs can also outperform
With the franchising industry constantly evolving, startups find hard to survive in the current scenario. The Croatian football team is a perfect example that if you are having your basic right, then there is certainly no stopping for you. With only three experienced players in their squad, they managed to defeat teams like Nigeria, Argentina, Uruguay, Russia, Denmark, and England, fixing their spot in World Cup final. Therefore, this industry has equal potential for everyone where one with basics and clear vision can outclass even big brands.
It’s all about team effort
Nobody had thought of Croatia making to the grandest stage of all. One big reason behind it is their team efforts which could be seen throughout their game. The dedication and sincerity could be seen easily by the Croatian team on and off the field for their nation. Startups could also achieve the same result by forming a team who are willing to provide their best for your business. A business, especially a startup is not an individual game. You will require a team in order to solve hurdles, and turning them into opportunities.
Supreme leader
Luka Modric came out to be a supreme leader, who lead his team from the front and landed them on the biggest stage of all. Being the most experienced and skilled player, he provided his everything, making sure that his team does well. In the same manner, you should be a people person with good leadership quality. You need to lead your business from the front, pouring every single learning and experience, boosting your business while supporting your team.
