Abstract
At the time this editorial was being drafted, Team Canada had just completed its best-ever performance in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This led us to consider the parallels between the worlds of sports and healthcare, with both existing in spaces with high-stakes performance, significant public attention and limited margins for error. In keeping with our Healthcare Quarterly focus on healthcare leadership, additional reflections on the sports versus healthcare analogy include the importance of shared purpose over star power, the value of great coaching, the importance of careful planning and preparation and the role of culture in teamwork. As we think about the work to transform healthcare, there are valuable lessons to be learned from within and outside of healthcare. Our Healthcare Quarterly editorial team is pleased to continue bringing our readers new and innovative reflections on healthcare leadership and how we "coach" our teams to even higher levels of performance.
