Lessons from the Chiefs-Eagles in Super Bowl LIX

Whether in sport or finance, everyone loves to score goals and thus take center stage for extraordinary performances… but it’s more often than not the defense, and behind-the-scenes work in general, that wins titles or championships and therefore proves to be a winner in the long term.
