Book Description

July 29, 2005
Readers of Coach Wooden’s Pyramid of Success received practical, down-to-earth, biblical tips for being successful in life. Readings based on Wooden’s own life experiences and spiritual development through the years revealed that success is built block by block, much like a pyramid. From confidence to faith, the building blocks contribute to moral character and form our key values. But, as Coach Wooden and author Jay Carty would be the first to admit, it’s not enough to simply read about the Pyramid of Success—one must also act on it. Enter Coach Wooden’s Playbook for Success, a pocket guide to the principles and Bible verses that Coach Wooden has lived and shared for more than 40 years.  Like sitting next to the legendary coach himself, working through each principle in the Playbook and spending time with God will encourage and set you on the road to success.

About the Author

JOHN WOODEN was a high school and college coach for 40 years. During that time, his teams won more than 80 percent of their games. From 1948 to 1975, his UCLA Bruin teams claimed 10 NCAA national championships, including 7 in a row, and at one time won 88 consecutive games. Wooden is in the Basketball Hall of Fame, both as a player and a coach. He originated the Pyramid of Success and is the coauthor with Jay Carty of the recent best-seller Coach Wooden One-on-One. Coach and his wife, Nellie, were married 53 years when she passed away in 1985. He currently lives in Southern California and, at 90-plus years of age, continues to lecture across the country.  
 
JAY CARTY has played for the Los Angeles Lakers, coached basketball at his alma mater, Oregon State, and been a part of John Wooden’s UCLA coaching staff. After hanging up his basketball shoes, Carty entered ministry. For 25 years he has been a traveling preacher and has written seven books, including Basic Training for Spiritual Combat and Playing with Fire. Jay and his wife, Mary, live in Santa Barbara, California.

An excellent book for helping people make good decisions for leading their personal and business lives. Athletics offers great analogies for comparison to business principles/decisions - and the ethics involved in the very fiber of Coach Wooden's Pyramid of Success is of utmost value to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm a Wooden man, October 22, 2009

What coach worth his salt, can not see even the most minute value in what this book has to offer. While the Pyramid was developed over many years, its time tested success is unquestionable. If you are a coach, looking to make a difference and have success on and off the field/court, this book is for you.
