About this listen

THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION

Champions do extra.
They sweep the sheds.
They follow the spearhead.
They keep a blue head.
They are good ancestors.

In Legacy, best-selling author James Kerr goes deep into the heart of the world's most successful sporting team, the legendary All Blacks of New Zealand, to reveal 15 powerful and practical lessons for leadership and business.

Legacy is a unique, inspiring handbook for leaders in all fields, and asks: What are the secrets of success - sustained success? How do you achieve world-class standards, day after day, week after week, year after year? How do you handle pressure? How do you train to win at the highest level? What do you leave behind you after you're gone?

What will be your legacy?

It could be the last chapter that leaves me with this thought but the book is about values that lead to legacies being left.
No one person is a legacy, it’s a sum of there actions. Their character.

Great book. I loved the stories and the sentiment they were built upon.

Lessons and stories weaved throughout both relating to rugby and life in general. I held enormous respect for The All Blacks but now I really understand why. Great book and brilliantly narrated in English as well as with special lessons on Māori.

A wonderful exposé on the discipline and culture of The All Blacks.

The layout was brilliant - significantly 15 chapters carefully unpacked by Mr Kerr. Respectfully weaving a thread of the Māori culture through the plumbing and poetry of the All Blacks. And wonderfully narrated as well. I’ve asked my son to promise me that he will read or listen to this book every few years, way past my years here on earth. James Kerr has created our own family legacy in this extraordinary love letter to the human condition. NS

Masterful and moving.

James Kerr tells a compelling story, and does so in a way that is accessible to those with only the barest knowledge of football or the teams.

This book was recommended by an instructor on a recent course. Usually I go for longer Audiobooks and buy short books hard copy. But I was pleasantly surprised how jam packed this one is.

Many of the lessons I could translate from the field to the office, and I think that was the point - use simple lessons learned over many years in a narrow area and find the parts that are consistent. Those consistencies translate. Unlike many flash-in-the-pan commercial success stories, the All Blacks legacy speaks for itself, particularly the way they came back after much soul searching and work.

Definitely one to listen to again, when back in the office and trying to build the new team in 2025.

Peace.
