For more than thirty years, renowned business consultant and best-selling author Ken Blanchard and legendary NFL football coach Don Shula have motivated teams to peak performances.

In their classic, authoritative work on coaching, Everyone's a Coach, they distilled their rich collective experience down to its key elements and shared their secrets for inspiring other to greatness. Now, back by popular demand, The Little Book of Coaching, captures the essence of their classic in this indispensable motivational gem—a gift to their readers and fans.

At the heart of this book is a simple acronym that describes the qualities of an effective leader:

• Conviction-Driven: Never compromise your beliefs
• Overlearning: Practice until it's perfect
• Audible-Ready: Know when to change
• Consistency: Respond predictably to performance
• Honesty-Based: Walk you talk

Using a highly effective "tag-team" approach, Blanchard and Shula impart the five leadership secrets behind the acronym. Shula tells you how each coaching concept worked on the field, and then Blanchard explains how you can apply each strategy in a leadership situation.

Instructive and inspirational, The Little Book of Coaching is the essential handbook that will teach you how to unleash excellence in anyone, including yourself. (Trn)
