乔·杜马斯：在球场上和场下，我始终坚持自己的领导风格，即在设定界限的同时，给予队员充分的自由和空间，让他们根据自身特点找到成功的路径。在防守迈克尔·乔丹时，我投入全部精力，并根据比赛情况调整策略。管理像丹尼斯·罗德曼和拉希德·华莱士这样的球员，关键在于理解和接受他们的个性差异，并确保他们与团队目标保持一致。我从父亲身上学到了重要的领导经验，即在给予自由的同时，设定明确的期望。在2004年带领活塞队夺冠时，我鼓励队员们接受‘不被看好’的弱势地位，这激发了他们的斗志。 Adam Grant：作为一名组织心理学家，我观察到优秀领导者通常具有谦逊、好学和以人为本等特质。成功的领导方式并非单一，人们可以根据自身价值观和团队情况选择最合适的路径。

Shownotes Transcript

Six-time NBA All-Star and Hall of Famer Joe Dumars spent 14 years with the Detroit Pistons. As the quiet leader of multiple championship teams, he guarded Michael Jordan –who said he did it better than anyone else– and helped keep teammates like Dennis Rodman focused. Although it was the “Bad Boys” era, Joe was the first-ever recipient of the NBA Sportsmanship Award, which is now named after him. After playing hard – and fair – Joe went on to spend another 14 years as the Pistons’ president of basketball operations, and is now a top executive in the NBA. Joe speaks with Adam about his leadership style both on and off the court, and shares the wisdom he’s learned about managing all kinds of people – and making teams better.
