Leadership: Bo's Lasting Lessons



I just picked up a great book "Bo's Lasting Lessons: The Legendary Coach Teaches the Timeless Fundamentals of Leadership." by Bo Schembechler and John U. Bacon. Yes, He is the legendary coach of the University of Michigan football team who passed on just last year. I couldn't put it down. It is filled with stories from his coaching days and through them he tells you how he lead his team and lived his values, values that even after football, his players are living out in life, in business, education, whatever. This is a great book for coaches and leaders of every stripe (business, athletics, education, etc.) He was a man who didn't just talk about leadership, he led!

I give this book two thumbs up!
