What Baseball Fans Really Love: Doubt About the Outcome


In major league baseball's first half-century, game attendance was entirely determined by teams' winning percentages, but in recent decades fans have been increasingly attracted by stadium quality, batting performance, and outcome uncertainty, raising the importance of competition-enhancing policies such as player free agency, say Seung C. Ahn of Arizona State University and Young H. Lee of Sogang University in South Korea. When a league policy enhances competitive balance enough to increase doubt about game outcomes and about consecutive-season dominance by 1 standard deviation, attendance increases by 4% in the American League and 7% in the National League.

The Management Tip of the Day from Harvard Business Review

Recognize When You’re Being Passive-Aggressive


When was the last time you didn't share your honest opinion when asked? Or the last time you got upset with someone and didn't let the person know why? Or maybe you procrastinated on an assignment because you didn't see the value in it. It's hard to recognize our own passive-aggressive behavior, but if we don't confront it, it breeds mistrust and erodes our credibility. First, identify what drives you to be passive-aggressive. Understanding the underlying cause (maybe a fear of failure, or rejection, or conflict) allows you to address it head-on. Then be honest with yourself about what you really want: What do you truly think or really want to say? What outcome are you hoping for? Think about how to express those desires in a direct, respectful way. And finally, get input from others to see if you're improving.

Adapted from " Signs You're Being Passive-Aggressive" by Muriel Maignan Wilkins.
