In this episode of The Business Book Club, we explore Moneyball by Michael Lewis, a fascinating look at how data, analytics, and innovation disrupted one of America’s most traditional industries — baseball. Beyond sports, Moneyball is a story about challenging convention, questioning intuition, and using evidence to make smarter, more objective decisions.

The book follows Billy Beane, the general manager of the Oakland A’s, who transformed his underfunded team by applying statistical analysis to identify undervalued players. His unconventional strategy redefined how success was measured — and ultimately reshaped the future of professional sport and business decision-making alike.

In this episode, we discuss how Moneyball applies far beyond baseball. We explore how data-driven thinking, creative problem-solving, and courage to defy industry norms can revolutionise performance in any field. It’s a story about innovation, leadership, and the power of questioning “the way things have always been done.”
