John Maxwell, Michael Josephson & others have raved about John Wooden's leadership skills. This book is a quick read and worth your time. It's a little light on content compared to some of the other leadership books I've read, which is why I only gave it 3 1/2 stars. The book describes how John Wooden's father and his basketball coaches influenced him and how Wooden's leadership style evolved over his coaching career.

I read this book for leadership training, and I have to say that there is only one main flaw; the fact that there is so much writing. For example, when one finishes the pyramid of success section, they are greeted with 3 questions; who best examples Industriousness in your life/history, who does it best on your team, and how do you encourage this. After you finish these three questions, you turn the next page to see that you have to do it again with enthusiasm. In total, you have to do this 15 t I read this book for leadership training, and I have to say that there is only one main flaw; the fact that there is so much writing.

After you finish these three questions, you turn the next page to see that you have to do it again with enthusiasm. In total, you have to do this 15 times. I wish that there could be less writing and more in-depth explanations of things. But, overall, I really liked it. It was easy to read, short (yet, again, that caused it to lack depth), and powerful. I think everyone could read this and benefit from it. Here's one of my favorite quotes: "Have one team, not starters and substitutes. No one feels good being a 'substitute'" (Wooden 122). Considering how I have been a treated like a sub many times, this really resonates with me. A wonderful read; if one of my two complaints that it isn't long enough, then it means that I enjoyed it that much! :)

Three books: an overview of Wooden’s philosophy, quote breakdowns and observations by others without theme. It may have worked as one kind of book...but not three.

If you are looking for a leadership book that puts you into action and gets you really thinking, this book is for you. Instead of just theory, the work book style of the content challenges you to journal and answer questions about yourself and your team while helping you put together a plan to execute.

A great book teach great lessons. What's more John Wooden has the track record to back up his teachings. Like all books of this category it does have the issue of giving many, many examples of the same principal. A great book teach great lessons.
