Publisher's Summary

Learn the inspiring story of the UCLA Bruins' legendary coach, John Wooden!

In John Wooden: The Inspiring Life and Leadership Lessons of One of Basketball's Greatest Coaches, you will learn the inspirational story of arguably the greatest coach of the 20th century, John Wooden. Few coaches carry the same esteem as Wooden, known for not only being a highly effective coach, but also a mentor and friend to his players. Wooden consistently led by example by inspiring his players to build strong habits both on and off the court. The influence Wooden had on the players he coached is evident, as many of his disciples have gone on to achieve great feats in their own respective careers.

Coach Wooden was able to lead his teams to 10 national championships, including one run that spanned seven consecutive years. There are a number of key leadership principles that can be learned from Wooden, such as his Seven-Point Creed and Pyramid of Success.
