Has Golf Helped Your Career?
One of my favorite golf quotes comes from sportswriter Grantland Rice, who said, “Eighteen holes of match or medal play will teach you more about your foe than will 18 years of dealing with him across a desk.” And golf still enjoys a reputation as being a great place to take care of business. In fact, I just recently came across this question on one of my favorite golf blogs, GolfRewind.com: Has golf helped your career?
I think that we have all heard the cliche “business is conducted on the golf course.” My question is, have you ever experienced this? Have you ever received a promotion? Landed a contract? Or impressed your superiors with your golf game. Does that cliche ring true? Or is it something that exists only in print?
