Annatko 12. pelaajankin onnistua?

Pääsin nauttimaan asiakkaiden kanssa syyskuussa hyvästä koripallomatsista, kun Susijengi jyräsi Kreikan. Illan aikana opin termin 12. pelaaja. Susijengin menestyksen salaisuus saattaakin piillä siinä, että he kehittävät asioita myös penkillä istuvan 12. pelaajan näkökulmasta.

The factory of the future is not a low-cost proof-of-concept — but proof-of concept is possible
