Do you ever compare management or the workplace to a sport?

Management is like rugby. My son and daughter play rugby. This is not as popular a sport in Canada as hockey, football, or soccer. I thought rugby had a lot in common with management and work. It is very fluid and changing, for a beginner or fan it is a challenge to understand, as you watch more or play more you appreciate some of the intricacies of the game, and at times you never know what will come out of the scrum.

Is management like: baseball, darts, hockey, football, bowling, mountain climbing, soccer, marathons, track and field, ringette, biathlon, volleyball, golf, basketball, luge, cricket, triathlon, boxing, polo, stock car racing, or some other sport?

Compare management to a sport.

Explain why you chose your specific sport.

For example: management is like running a marathon - you need to be in good shape, it seems to go on forever, and you feel so good after you do it well.

I encourage you to be playful and have some fun with this.

Go ahead, be a sport, what sport do you think is like management and why?
