Download Sport Matters: Leadership, Power, and the Quest for Respect in Sports AudioBook Free
Donald Sterling. Ray Rice. The Washington Redskins. The Miami Dolphins. NCAA sportsmen. These titles, among many others, have blanketed the headlines as the advertising has taken global attention to several recent sports controversies. Now Kenneth L. Shropshire, The Wharton School of the School of Pennsylvania professor of legal studies and business ethics and director of the Wharton Activities Business Effort, uses these testimonies as a prism for checking out the leadership issues facing team owners, management, players, and enthusiasts. In Sport Things: Leadership, Vitality, and the Search for Respect in Activities, Shropshire examines the necessity for diversity, inclusion, admiration, and equality in sports, focusing on the necessity for authority to accept and deliver these ideas in a genuine and tangible way within the sports industry. He also presents the sports ability matrix, a framework for understanding ability within the sports industry. Sport Things addresses what the Donald Sterling crisis can show us about race and the necessity for inclusion at the ownership level; the lessons learned from the NFL and Ray Rice case; the Washington Redskins' name and the economics of change; what the Miami Dolphins subject explains to us about admiration at work and beyond; and compensation and equality in amateur sports. Sport Things, filled with disturbing revelations and uncomfortable truths, also provides anticipation, revealing how obstacles to achieving an ideal culture of equality and admiration within the sports industry can be removed. Shropshire argues that while change things, continued emphasis on diversity, inclusion, and respect is required to create true improvement.
