Product Description

Sports Leaders & Success chronicles how 55 celebrated athletes and coaches rose to the top of their games, uncovering methods that can be adapted to any competitive environment and translated into success. Building on the popular and respected Investor's Business Daily "Leaders & Succes" section, this inspirational, results-focused book examines:

  • How basketball legend John Wooden won an unsurpassed 10 of 12 NCAA Championship titles
  • How Mia Hamm's committment made her the all-time leading scorer in women's soccer
  • How Michael Jordan's dedication won him the NBA scoring title a record 10 times


From the Back Cover

Be the best and win against the toughest opponents

with the leadership skills used by today's leading sports figures

What makes Mia Hamm and Michael Jordan two of the most successful sports leaders in the world? Their drive, dedication, ambition, courage, and winning strategies. Sports Leaders & Success goes behind-the-scenes to reveal strategies used by 55 celebrated athletes and coaches and explores how to apply their skills to succeed in any competitive environment.

Straight from the popular Investor's Business Daily "Leaders & Success" section, this inspirational book examines how:

  • Basketball legend John Wooden won an unsurpassed 10 of 12 NCAA Championship titles by relentlessly focusing on what worked (and fixing what didn't) for each group of young men he coached.
  • Tennis great Martina Navratilova practiced constantly and used the advice of other pros to win the most championships of any player in tennis history, man or woman.
  • Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's dedication and self-discipline helped this scrawny kid grow up to become one of the greatest basketball players ever.
  • Lance Armstrong won the Tour de France five years in a row by working harder than anyone else and riding when no one else would.

Highlighting the traits and habits of the world's greatest athletes, this collection provides positive examples of the uncompromising dedication behind any and all success. Learn what it takes to be at the top of your game with Sports Leaders & Success.
