Found this to be a good review of the Vince Lombardi work principles. Simple but common sense. And probably more of how a leader lives their lives than a road map on how to transform your organization. A good job and a good read.

Great rah rah rah. Coach,....take me out for a while.

Real world examples to approach your business or sports. Vince surprisingly understands the human spirit. Great examples to live by.

Good principles. I just wanted a piece of what Lombardi has to offer in success. This “book” is very small. Not that many pages at all. I thought it was a big book but a very quick read. Maybe I didn’t read the description well enough. Just FYI it’s a very quick read.

Compacto pero muy bien resumido.

Sent for this not expecting a great deal, but within it's small a mount of pages I found more wisdom and useable, motivating and thought provoking 'lessons' that in the collective works of a hundreds larger and more pretentious texts. Excellent, pragmatic, motivating. I would recommend this for anyone in any field of endeavour without hesitation.

Great read, for anyone in all walks of life. He had a clear vision as to what he wanted. Thank yoiu

El libro lo escribe el hijo de Vince, muy alejado de lo que ocurrió en ese equipo, es una batería de consejos muy generales sin ninguna anécdota real

ottimo riassunto di una mentalità vincente dovrebbero leggerlo la maggior parte dei manager e dirigenti in ogni ambito
