Are You Playing the Long Game?

Are you playing the long game or chasing short-term gains? Are you potentially sacrificing long-term gains for short-term sales?

Welcome to this week's episode of The Matt Phillips Podcast, where our host, Matt Phillips, shines a light on the fascinating concept of playing the infinite game in business and sales as opposed to the finite game. Inspired by Simon Sinek's captivating video on game theory, Matt delves into the importance of consistency, prioritizing long-term growth, and fostering open discussions within organizations to achieve a balance between these often conflicting approaches. Matt shares his unique perspective on the infinite game in business and sales, offering valuable insights on how to harmonize the finite and infinite game approaches to create a reliable, sustainable, and successful business model.
