From
the Back Cover --
“I have found that the
most successful executives today manage their organizations like they
were head coaches because the same qualities that make for a successful
coach makes for a successful executive. John shares practical insights
from his coaching career to teach you how to lead with your mind and
your heart. The Coach Approach will teach you winning strategies to
bring about game-changing performance in business and life.”
Jon Gordon
Best-selling author of The Energy Bus and Training Camp
“When I finished
reading The Coach Approach, I thought I wonder what my mentor of 40
years, Coach John Wooden, would say about it. We agreed on almost every
issue of life and basketball. I believe he would say what I feel about
it. The book is sensible, sincere, simple, sagacious, salient,
scholarly, and short, (which he would have really liked.) He was a man
that could clearly say anything with a powerful impact in a few words.
Congratulations John for a job well done.”
Dale Brown
Hall of Fame basketball coach, motivational speaker and author
“The lessons and insights in
The Coach Approach may be rooted in sports, but they apply to just about
every aspect of leadership in business. Through behind the scenes
experiences with his teams, John shows you how to take your organization
to the next level. If you’re interested in winning, you will love this
book. If you’re committed to winning, you need this book.”
Patrick
Sweeney President of Caliper and
New York Times best-selling author of Succeed on Your Own Terms
“The Coach Approach is
a valuable contribution to the business leadership literature. Coach Bru
gets beyond pithy slogans and overused motivational quotes, providing
thoughts that create strong roots for success. He has taken his unique
use of metaphor, practical wisdom, and reflectiveness to create a book
that will aid any individual striving to maximize potential in business
. . . or life.”

“The Coach Approach is
the one book on leadership I’d have, if I could have just one.”
